    Good video thanks. I've just bought the lens, even though I own the 60mm as well. It was on special in Australia for $840 brand new incl a cash-back offer. Hopefully I will find other uses except macro. It will be interesting to see if the Panasonic TeleConverters work on it.

    Nice photowalk, Michael. Always interesting to hear of your successes/struggles with macro, as we all have. That hemipteran face-on image is incredible. Thank you. Mosquitoes are bad everywhere. I'm in coastal Southern California, near original Disneyland. We have 26 species of mosquitoes in this area, plus deer flies and horse flies; can't find that info in the tourist brochures. I keep DEET in the car at all times.

  • @Mark-qn9xl

    As for image review I have turned it off in my Olympus cameras as I find it of little use, so cannot help there, especially as your issues seem to be intermittent. If I need to review the shot I just press the left arrow button for image review. That way I can examine it and not be limited to a particular time. Seems like a non issue. I had to laugh when you talked about cropping as a problem because of only 20mp. My wife's first digital camera had 4mp and mine, a DSLR, had 6mp. 35mm film was somewhere around 8-12mp. Software these days makes ISO and image size less relevant. I have enjoyed your channel and have purchased the Godox 860iii flash and Cygnustech diffuser because of this. I have the O-M1 and 90mm macro. As for mozzies, well I have lived with these my whole life in Australia and New Guinea. Long sleeves and some insect repellant usually works.

    Hello my friend, thanks for your videos. I wanted to warn you to be very careful when using repellents that contain DEET because I had a problem with the buttons on my camera, the icons were erased because of that component. Nothing serious, just aesthetic but it would have been better if it didn't happen... Hugs from Argentina!
