There are loads of macro attachments for the Pentacon Six, but does anyone ever use them? I got the tubes out while I was doing dragonflies a while back and shot this on Velvia 100. The colours ended up all screwed up (under-exposure, probably) so I desaturated it. This is cropped from the centre of the frame:

Very good picture , nicely done! I never made macro with film not only with P6.

It took half a roll of film to get that. I have shot a few other macros with a Pentacon (as far back as 1978) but this is the only living, moving thing I've tried. They are harder than stamps, pills and ashtrays. I used flash so I could get a decent shutter speed - 1/250 or 1/500, with the Biometar 120 hand-held.
