Piecho's photo journey

[Piecho]

Hey,
When starting grow I get curious when comes to the macro photography. I started with the macro lens for the phone. I can recomend cheap macro one (single lens from 3in1 kit) or 60x one for really close ups

Now decided to go with m43 format. I went with 16mpx Olympus r-pl6 with 14-42mm lens and macro tubes. It costed me less than 200e for whole setup, great value for money in my opinion : )

Still do have a lot to learn when comes to to the close and macros, but thats the idea behind the topic. To share the knowledge and DIY spirit I'm starting my current photo journey topic here.

Slowly feeling that I know most of the manual settings here. Its good that you can set the ISO or white balance using button shrotcut.

Terps Army Tea Time. Playing with 10mm extension tube. Single photo, no stacking.
Definitely still should be able to get sharper, shooting with hand even stabilized is no option in 2-3s exposure. Zoom in the viewfinder is really helpful here. Lens is sharp on the camera, but again my hand is not so steady.

Pinky Sour, still no stacking.
No playing with edits as well yet, still procrastinating to launch Darkroom and learn the basics.

Some balcony basil as a bonus.

More basil, still procrastinating to launch Darktable and play with RAWs.
