The 60/2.4, she is not so bad

Okay, few of my shots go near the max mag of the lens, and f you need higher mags then you do. But it is sharp, small, and affordable, and even good at infinity-ish focus.

I'm not so sure whether it's the lens that makes these impressive.   Sure it helps. . . that's v.good photography.  Well done.

The lens definitely helps, it is very, very good. Now I need to learn to use flash properly! Thanks for your kind comment.

These shots were in the Audubon refuge at Allens Pond and the Trustees property at Rocky Narrows, both in MA. Thanks to both of those organizations.

For techies, here's the Fujifilm Fujinon XF60mm F2.4 R Macro in the PhotonsToPhotos Optical Bench

One interesting thing is that it does not focus breath.

Thanks, interesting to me, especially seeing the extension as it goes from infinity to closest focus.
