Re: How often and how much do you crop?

Here is my most severely cropped photo taken recently. This fly is 0.9mm long. I photographed it with a Canon RF 100mm macro lens, which maxes out at 1.4x magnification. Normally I shoot such photos with my MP-E 65mm lens, which maxes out at 5x magnification.

A good portion of my photos are significantly cropped, for sites such as this.

Here's how much I cropped for this photo. That as using maximum magnification with this lens.
