Pfffff... that is not easy. So much magnification (about 2.5:1 ?) and a DOF that is less than nothing Surprised . These are not the best photos as far as composition, bokeh, lighting and even focus point is concerned, but I wanted to show you these just to push myself just one step further. Sorry if you feel abused Very Happy !

These photos are only cropped on the long side, to get squares....


#1: Bad news: I've got aphids on my red currants Sad



#2: And even worse: they can fly in certain stadia Crying or Very sad



#3: And they are even looked after Evil or Very Mad

But you have shown what can be done with a lens that was passed over not so long ago for Nikon's, Canon's etc. I got my Vivitar 55mm for under £10 in Minolta MD mount.
