Damn bubbleman 24mp? That's crazy, your pictures seriously make me want to wait to the next page to post my 4mp macro shots.

I know you've probably been asked this upteen times but what's your camera set up?

Not the best, but better than nothing...

pentax with macro lens

What model? The only camera I have is a tiny $200 dollar Pentax I bought 2 years ago and it has a relatively fabulous macro setting for the price, so I'm not surprised to see this level of quality on the upper end.

pentax k20d

 

[mtnmama420]

I just looked up that on amazon...attractive price now that it's over a year old...but then I saw the relatively new Pentax K-7 14.6 MP Digital SLR with Shake Reduction and 720p HD Video...$1,299 body only...time to save up.

 

[Pyro flambeur]

yep k7 are very good !

Really great work guys, I wish I had a few grand to get a quality camera.......... but I don't so I'll just have to look at your magic work, Damn that last pictue looks like something from a kids disney movie or something. Top quality work guys!

 

[Pyro flambeur]

Nikon D40, reversed 18-55mm, homemade ext tube, bounced flash and other techniques.

Here are the 10 best out of the 60 that I kept out of the 250 pics that I took last night. I want a true macro lens now lol but they're mostly just 1:1 so I may as well use the reverse lens technique. Wish the canon 6x was cheaper and for nikon. Here are my latest

100% crop. Most pics where still a lot sharper though. Would be cool to get this magnification in a full size pic.

Started playing with lighting and background more.
