I bought a Canon 300mm f/4 IS today - for me the ability to focus down to 1.5m is going to be useful for 'macro' and I already have the 1.4x TC The IS is a useful addition but if I had been after a lens that would be used mainly for bird photography I think I would probably have gone for the...

Great photo. I'm struggling just to get shots technically correct with the MP-E. This shot ticks all the boxes.

I have the Sigma 150mm f/2.8 (non OS) - great quality, useful extra reach - particularly good for dragonflies. Downside is that it's just a bit on the heavy side.

I just installed a trial version of Zerene Stacker Seems pretty good, but how does it compare to other focus stacking utilities on Mac

Awe-inspiring set Mike Even with my 150mm I have trouble getting close to those damsel flies. I read somewhere that going out just after dawn the beasties are cold and stay still for longer. Any tips for just getting close without spooking them ?

My broadband speed is usually around 0.9MBps and BBC iPlayer generally stops and starts. I was very surprised to find that Netflix streamed with no problems at all - even with other people in the house using the bandwidth. The problem for me is that there is not a big enough selection of films...

I agree with the others - a fine collection and #4 is great. For me #1 is stunning - it has perfectly captured the speed of the kart. That guy is flying !

They're all good :) But there's something special about #1 That profile shot looking into empty space is unusual and really works !
