My camera/lens just arrived in the mail while I was at work today..my wife charged the battery for me, so as soon as I got home, I started scouring the porch for something to test the camera with...took this within 15 minutes of getting it all mounted..the MT-24X has very harsh light..and I have some diffusers for it, was just too eager to play before I get them mounted..picture was taken at 2:1, couldn't get in for a higher magnification, since he was crammed in a crack in the wall :)

    You're doing a lot better with the MPE-65 than I did when I first got the lens :cool

    An excellent first shot. My first shot with this lens was with a screw, using Brian's tutorial. I am still struggling to use it but I am sure enjoying the challenge. Keep up the good work.
    Regards
