New Macro Lens = New Photos

[AverageJoe]

Finally took the plunge on a Macro lens, it's been a long time since I've had the close focus ability so I'm pretty pumped. Obviously a lot of PP in these, but wanted to get something on the board:

Is the out of focus bolt in the last one bothering anyone? Or did you not notice it till now?

Nice set from the new lens.

And yes it does bother me, on something with such a small size you should be able get the metal (bolt ?) in focus at a reasonable F stop. Yes I did see it.:meh: It's the angle of the shot and what's in it that make me care. The second one works despite having only a bit in focus.

F2.8 at anywhere near 1:1 is super thin.

I like #3, but would have liked F8 or even F11.
