I usually shoot BIF and wildlife but it was a bit of a gross day out so decided to pick up my old fmount 105 micro and take it for a spin on my new z9. Pleasantly surprised how this one turned out for just messing around in the back yard. I think I caught the macro bug again...

Flash diffused with a sheet of paper. Looking for suggestions on a diffuser if you have one!

Re: ANTZ

I recommend the below diffuser. It is cheap, it always fits, and you can achieve GREAT results with it. I used it for a year and bought a second one. For inspiration look up Micaell Widell's Youtube channel, he had shot thousands of stunning shots with it, you will be inspired big time!

(Best results if you keep a 45 degree angle)

Kind regards,

Bas
