I hope it works out well. Bear in mind that you will probably find at first that it is more difficult to use than the Raynox 150. If that happens don't get discouraged. With practice it gets a lot ...

Many people are entirely happy using dedicated macro lenses. My experience is different, especially when it comes to photographing insects, spiders, snails etc. What follows has to do with my ...

These were captured in our garden in early May using a Panasonic G80 with 14-140 and Canon 500D close-up lens. The images were batch processed in DXO PhotoLab and Lightroom, with image-specific ...

That page works ok for me in Chrome (current version, v67, 64 bit).

Nice set. I particularly like the water lilies and the cleome.

One of life's little mysteries. :)

Nice varied set. Interesting to see the very contextual shot for the first one. The snail is my favourite; I think snails in motion can make very good subjects, as did this one. Well captured.

Pretty beast. Nice composition.

My experience is the same, for what I mainly do. For invertebrates I use the 150 most of the time. Usually these days that is on an FZ330 bridge camera, which gives me a greater range of ...

You could, but you really need to diffuse the flash to get the best results. You can do this with an on-board flash but I can see it being difficult to arrange with the GM1 because of how the ...

I don't know where the OP is located, but in the UK the 58mm Opteka 10X HD macro lens is rather expensive at 160 UKP (at Amazon UK - I can't find it elsewhere in the UK), with delivery in 3-4 ...
