The quality is not good, but that just makes me want to go out and take some more - but this is fun...

could be drone fly?

How the hell did you manage those?

Is the Sony AF really that quick?

Brilliant shots I reckon.

Restricted the AF mechanism to 28-50cm - tried to keep the insect in the focus spot and held down the shutter - it only fired when it thought it had something.. shot at 20fps to increase my luck.

the AF of the 90mm macro at this mag is not that quick

Hi Dan, Hover flies, both of them, Just different ones.
Well caught though and a great 1st try, thumbs up.

Cool, not an easy capture.

Yeah the first is a drone fly and well done for getting those with the 90mm
A well diffused flash helps
