    Hhmmm … I’ve been so busy using the 120mm lens for so many other things that I really haven’t spent much time taking any macro shots. I should’ve used a tripod … but it’s cool to know just how good the 120’s macro capability is to use when you need it.

    Kurt,
    Nice.
    That was a crop down from what?
    I ask since the 120 is not 1to1 as your bee would suggest.

    Fuzzy little rascal; surprising DoF. Nice!

    Very impressive Kurt (especially handheld). I like the composition as well.

    Hi Jack,

    You are certainly correct that it’s a crop. Here’s the original. 1-1 is too close for bees in my book anyway. 😉

    The crop is impressive but I really like the uncropped photo. Really a nice shot.

    Yes, the full pic somehow reminds me of “Toy Story”… 🙂

    I like both.
    That’s always been a plus to extra resolution. You can create so many photographs from one scene.

    I recently sold from my website what I had posted as a panorama shot, and off my website, which allows for custom cropping, the buyer cbose to crop it to a rectangle and it still had enough resolution for them to order it as a 30″x40″ photograph.
