Your BEST Macro Shots.

[CrAzY PiCs]

Ouf! Super shot.
Thank you. Few more macro's clicked last week. :)

1. All that glitters is not gold!

3. And finally, an attempt that went wrong! Hopefully, failure is the stepping stone to success! Need to learn how to do this! Suggestion anyone?

Can you please share the details of the shot and the configuration of your equipment.

I liked it! black background, reflection, accurate focus... sort of macro product shot of a bio robotic thing :)

for the third one, I think either you need to focus on the outer surface of the water drop, or get a DOF same width of the drop. in your case the focus is before the water drop.

[KrishnenduKes]

Lovely.

Anvancy, you have serious competition here. You have managed to inspire people to take such shots. Hats off to both.

Canon Powershot S5 + DCR 250.

Like i have replied in your message, the DOF with the DSLR is super thin on this thing. Its a very difficult job to get the focus right. Much better on the Powershot though.

Anvancy has mentioned this in his review as well! He can give more info. :)

Tried few more drops, but i am just not getting it right with the drops! :(

Thank you! But competition? No way! I have loads to learn from his works. Diversifying now? :)
Created quite an uproar with his car reviews in another forum! Brochure stuff, really! Loved it.
I wish I had a raynox :)
Nice shot! Details is there, but just a learner's suggestion- angle could have been better. :) Reversing does a good job on a DSLR. As I have mentioned earlier, Raynox also has super thin DOF with a DSLR. :)

Processing wise its good.

But tell me where is the focus?cause my eyes are wandering over the whole photo trying to see where the focus is.and this is the difficult part in macros.

What equipment are you using to shoot this?

[7-methyltheophylline]

It's just shot with my point-and-shoot PowerShot SX1 IS, followed by a crop and noise reduction in the GIMP.

[dipdawiz]

got my raynox dcr250, though not sure whether I am capable to do justice to it or not... looking for a subject, could not find any suitable one at this moment, so decided to shoot this 3mm dia bearing ball; on my living room floor...

I guess it is perfectly exposed.

But I guess you need to work on the sharpening and lighting bit. Ask Anvancy, maybe he can give you a few pointers. From what I can remember he uses a DIY diffuser box for his flash to light his Macro subjects. He even has a thread on the DIY diffuser box.

[anvancy-(macro analyst)]

What aperture you are shooting at?

Anvancy

[Shabbar]

What aperture you are shooting at?

Anvancy

f-8 to f-16 to get good DOF. your comments will be highly apreaciated.

[anvancy-(macro analyst)]

The light requirement for F16 at that point will be high.What light source you were using?

Anvancy

[Shabbar]

The light requirement for F16 at that point will be high.What light source you were using?

Anvancy

right now just my onboard flash with a plastic container on it to difuse the light, am planning to make a softbox as per your tutorial in an earlier post .

[anvancy-(macro analyst)]

I will say the onboard flash may be insufficient. You can buy a vivitar 285HV for starters.

One reasons a Fly, whether on the wing or at rest, is so hard to hit is the nature of its eyes. Humans have two lenses - one in each eye, the Housefly has eight thousand lenses - four thousand in each eye. Bulging outward from the sides of its head, the thousands of six-sided lenses fit together like honeycomb cells, and provide wide-angle vision unknown to humans

So you are making use of the dedicated Macro lens.

Did you hold on to your lens with your hands?

[7-methyltheophylline]

Yes, I simply held the reversed lens directly against the sensor. It was at 18mm and manually focused to infinity.

How did you manage to damage the sensor? I guess you know that its the AA filter on top of the sensor, and that you can change it, or even you can use your camera without that filter. In fact the pictures will be much sharper without AA filter but you'll get more of moire effect and in some lighting condition you will see IR leaked in.
Henry

[hensil]

Yes, I simply held the reversed lens directly against the sensor. It was at 18mm and manually focused to infinity.

You can also use an fast lens like 50 f/1.8 holding in reverse in front of other telephoto lens mounted on the camera. This is called lens coupling and it gives quite a magnification. The reversed front lens works as a good diopter. Try it.
Henry

[7-methyltheophylline]

Thanks a lot for your reply. I will look into both things you said, the AA filter and the reversed 50mm lens.I actually just got a 50mm f/1.8, so I'll try some of those shots today.

I appreciate how you like to share your considerable knowledge, Hensil. Good stuff.

Good capture and I would have liked more focus on the eyes. But I know in macro its easier said than done... Raynox ???

[anvancy-(macro analyst)]

Yes it was DCR 250. And even I thought the same about the focus.
