Echo63 Posted August 10, 2016 Share #1 Posted August 10, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) spent a little bit of time creeping around my front yard this morning, with my M240, DIY extension tube, 50 Summarit and a ringflash not an easy setup to use, especially on insects that are barely stopping, but a bit of fun, and some pictures i am very happy with. This Bee took off just as i clicked the shutter, and managed to fly into focus. a very lucky shot Welcome, dear visitor!

Iduna Posted August 11, 2016 Share #4 Posted August 11, 2016 very nice results!! I like that dreamy touch caused by the big eyes. Nice that you shared your setup. Interesting to know that the Yongnuo works. I'll check out further for my needs. I have very good experience with Yongnuo on my Canon 5DMKIII.

Echo63 Posted August 11, 2016 Author Share #5 Posted August 11, 2016 Stuart - Thankyou Euston - I am actually amazed i got anything in focus, it is a little tricky trying to judge focus on the rear LCD, holding it out in full sun.... Iduna - i haven't actually used the yongnuo on my Canon yet - but its manual only on the Leica (no TTL metering) fortunately its pretty easy to use, set the lens for minimum focus distance, adjust the flash to suit - if its in focus, its properly exposed too.

Which aperture did you use?By the way, did you notice that there is a 4 leaf clover in the bottom left of your photo of the camera in between the 2 swirled straps?Best Regards, Michael Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best Regards, Michael I didnt see the 4 leaf clover - i did just go out and found a 5 leaf one in the same area though Aperture was either f11 or f16, i am not sure which.
