The 1st shot...Don't like it Don't like how blown out it is. Also It seems like focus is uneven. Did you shoot this with the defocus background option?

2nd shot is really Goood.

3rd shot is nice also except the oof in foreground distracts from the photo

May I try some post processing to the 1st photo and post my results?

This lily had a little visitor.

But the HX200V isn't bad either, if you get very close and zoom back most of the way.

This last one was done with an HX100V, to complete an HX-Series group. It was taken in the 5-MP mode, when I forgot that was where the camera was set.

I assume that some of these were not taken with a macro lens.  I'm impressed with the results.

The subtle colours are beautiful.
