I've had it 2 days, it takes a bit to get used to.

Nice set. Cant wait for my real macro lens to get here.

LOVE the spiders. How did you get the one with the white background? As far as I know, there are no white plains in the great widerness that also happen to have jumping spiders.

Lol great pictures. #2 is too pornographic for me! :P

[Crazydad]

Great pictures. Although I could have done without seeing the flies doing it. TMI on that one. The spider shots are really cool even though they freak me out....

[Marco]

Thanks all

I'm starting to get used to it a little more. Since the first post I've now got my flash off camera and diffused, which has been a great help.
A few pictures with current setup.

WOW! Super tight captures. No lens data in the EXIF,...

[MongooseDog]

Love the spider shots!! Did I miss it? What lens are you using?

[Marco]

Thanks again

I used a Canon 400D + Canon MP-E 65 with a 430ex flash.

Please can you post a pic of your current setup

I did a search on that lens and it is Macro only with 5 magnification ranges. It is a pretty penny for just macro.
