Some Macro shots with the above mentioned lens on Olympus E-P2 using Macro tubes. All hand-held and with lens wide open.

Not sure this is best use for the lens, a tripod may help.

Thanks for your comments Patrikh. They are indeed yucky subjects! Actually, it was quite incidental that I used this lens. I actually took the lens out to take some portraits of my daughters. But then I found this wasp/bee on the flower and put the macro tubes on. The sun was out too so quickly took the shots but I agree, I need tripod for Macro. Lately just can't find time to get a proper setup and the weather has been absolutely terrible.

Yes, they're busy attacking my roses in the front garden currently. I have managed to kill them once but they've returned. Sorry for bringing back bad memories Embarassed
