Great Images Big Red. The third one of the bee is the winner for me. For handheld 200 this is impressive technique. However, this is reviews and critiques so I have to ask about depth of field in the Dragon Fly and the Moth(nice bokeh) in the first image. I have had some difficulty using macro filters (all I can afford at present) and physically moving back and forth to get into focus so what kind of control does your 200 Pentax macro give you over the depth of field or did you need a low aperature to get the light without a flash?
In the end we know Nothing, but in the meantime Learn like crazy.
Your Camera Does Matter Nikon D70 D200 D300 PPOK
The lens is a Pentax A*200 f4 Macro and i actually find it a lot harder to get a crisp pic with it compared to my Tamron 90 macro due mainly to movement blur so i tend to try and use a wide aperture to keep the speed up where possible.
Only just got this lens so i am still trying to work out how to use it. I will get into flash with it when i get the info contact pin fixed as i can only use it fully manual at the moment. its a very very sharp bit of glass but i have yet to get the best sharpness AND an interesting pic at the same time ![]() Shane

I'm with Dargan I think that the 3rd is a standout, especially handheld.
