Kay 3,709 Posted March 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Hi kay i just wondered if you use macro for them photos they are spot on pet. I have a new camera and I got macro lenses and allsorts of stuff but dont know how to use them. This cameras got a super macro setting , on your camera it should be the little flower symbol , i just slightly depress the main shoot button & a square comes up with a magnified bit of whatever i am taking in the veiw finder , i just move back and forth slightly untill what i want to take looks in focus to me, but the real test is if its in focuc once you get it on the pc the fly pic was easy as it didnt fly off enabling me to take half dozon of it as it moved round the leaf , most things i get 1 chance & 99% of the time the rest is a blurd mess Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MuttleMcTuttle 21 Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 That last fly pic is really good Kay. It's an unusual angle - normally see them from above & head on, makes a change to see its bum Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kay 3,709 Posted March 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Whats a nymph ? (insect wise i know what the other sort is ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dime 0 Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Nymph is a word used to describe the immature stages of an insect, usually the groups of insects that don't go through the pupal stage, like Grasshoppers, Crickets, Bushcrickets, Dragonflies, Mayflies, Shield Bugs other True Bugs etc....
