I had a damaged Google Carboard that I cut in half, and taped a magnet to so I could stick it to the back of my phone and use as a budget macro lens. Works a treat for me

Wasp, UK (lemmy.world)

After getting jealous from seeing the results of skill, patience, and stacking macro photos in the news, I was pleased to find today's crop of photos using a Canon R6 + RF 100mm macro lens can still do a satisfying photo.

I'm guessing it's a Common Wasp, but don't have the knowledge to be sure!

I do most of my macro photography with a Nikon d3300 and an old manual lens, a 55/f3.5 Micro-Nikkor P Auto from 1972.

Trying out my new camera and lens. I didn't expect getting such good results with no practice on the R7, but it does 99% of the job.
