As my camera sensor is an Apsc, the minimum distance for focusing is reduced by 1,5x so I just put the top of the lens on my left hand on which one the insect is and shoot with the right hand. Most of time at higher magnification ratio I have, the subject is only 4 or 5 cm from the lens.Quick question MinitecaPhotographie , how you managed to keep the insect on your finger and same time to take photo with it, is camera was on tripod ?
really lovely photos especially first one
The main difficulty with this insect it that he moves with shaked movement so it's sometimes very hard to get the right focus...
