    The red beetle near the beginning is a Cardinal Beetle. Off the top of my head there are 3 species in the UK, but you need to check that out. It's a Red-headed Cardinal Beetle (Pyrochroa serraticornis).

    Morning Jamie, absolutely love your macro work. I do have a question. When you have the diffuser over the subject and you shoot off 10, 20, 30 shots, are you moving the camera very slightly backwards and forwards, so that you get all parts in focus for stacking maybe? Also, I presume your lens is an autofocus one? Thanks

    • @JamieSpensley
      @JamieSpensley  4 місяці тому +1

      Thanks! My lens is autofocus but I shoot in manual focus, set my magnification to 1:1 usually and hold the shutter while moving closer to my subject. But a lot of the time now I use automated focus bracketing so the camera can get all the frames for me without having to move

  • @armstrn
    @armstrn Рік тому

    loving the content mate. What settings are you using when not in photo stacking mode.. it seems like 10 frames per second?

    • @JamieSpensley
      @JamieSpensley  Рік тому

      I'm glad you like the content! I usually shoot 1/250, F/8, ISO-200 and a flash power between 1/16 and 1/64. I think I'm shooting at 8.5fps

  • @alanoleary2278

    Are you shooting in aperture priority? Do you have a focus light attached to the flash.

    • @JamieSpensley
      @JamieSpensley  Рік тому

      I shoot manual everything. I have a focus light but I don't use it unless it is night time.

  • @5RustyBin
    @5RustyBin Рік тому

    when you are not using the auto focus stacking and instead are just doing the rocking how many pictures do you find are normally necessary for creating the final image in post? 20?

    • @JamieSpensley
      @JamieSpensley  Рік тому

      It depends how much of the subject I want in focus. To get a whole subject in focus, it can take between 20 and 60 images. It varies depending on the size of the subject I am photographing. The beetle at the end was a 10 image stack I think

  • @disrupt_ist

    You got very lucky with the brown ladybug. First, the Aphid climbed over the ladybug. Then on your next shot @ 5:23 did you notice the Aphid in the bottom right corner from the underside of the leaf? It made me laugh. Btw, this is a great little channel. Keep the images coming. I've only recently discovered macrophotography, and like you, I love looking for insects to shoot. It feels like i'm peeping into a hidden world, and it's so addictive.
    EDIT: You did mention the little Aphid. (Sorry, I paused the video to write this comment.)

    @Agg1E91 Рік тому +1

    I often wonder what those quick flash bursts do, if anything, to the insect's light sensing. Especially predator insects like spiders. Obviously they aren't really "thinking" about it, but they also don't seem to actively react. Maybe the instinct is to just freeze until it passes, because there really isn't any built-in instinct response to *RAPID FLASH MODE FROM HUMAN IMPLEMENTED CAMERAS*
