Cheers guys.
This filter is amazing, I dont have to crop anything, just find one in focus
shrink and upload.
Straight from the camera
Same photo cropped
Next two straight from camera, just cropped again
And, to try to stay on fish topic, I tried to get a cherry shrimp, but I really need to clean the glass, so I'll try again after a water change and clean.
But this is what I got, uncropped, straight from camera
Nicaraguensis teeth
Nicaraguensis eye
Texas Cichlid teeth, not very clear, I'll try again, but with less than 3mm depth of field, focusing on a fish is hard
Cheers

A few more shots, didnt get much of a chance to go out and get some snaps this weekend, I have too much due at uni
Dont know what these are, but they are tiny and I have a lot of them.
Same guy as my first photo with new filter.
Something else :dontknow:
Baby Redback
Spined Shield Bug? I hope!
A little closer
Tiny ant on 20mm pvc. I am quite impressed with the pvc in this, who knew it looked like that up close!
One of roughly 20,000!
And finally a Trout that was swimming near the surface of the water as I was walking inside
Cheers for looking!

55mm lens
6 second exposure
f 5.6
ISO100
You can increase exposure time, I think I was playing around with it at the time.

Super Macro Lens..
Please tell me where you got this from and what you paid for it???
I just bought a Tamron 90mm Macro F2.8
Took it over to Kings Park to see what it could do and was pretty impressed...
Cheers

The Tamron is the one I was using before.
The Super Macro is actually an achromatic diopter lens that goes on the front of your standard lens.
You can buy a +3 or a +5.
I bought both and prefer the +5, you dont need to crop the photos.
The +3 is similar to a 105mm macro when used with a 200mm lens.
I bought them on ebay from oec camera, they are about $55 ea +$30 for shipping.
So you turn a standard 200mm stock lens into a macro for $85!
Dont bother with the $10 ones, you get serious chromatic aberation, distortion and focus problems.

Below are pictures of a spider eating a caterpillar.
If you dont want to see it, dont scroll further
The photos were rushed, your cant tell a spider to wait till you get settings right, so some shots have focus issues.
