Macro insect pics taken with the Canon 6D
I recently purchased a set of manual extension tubes for my Canon 6D. This enabled me to attach a reverse ring onto the end of the extension tubes and then screw on a Nikor F1.8 A lens. The magnification of this set up is amazing...
It is not very easy to use however and I have to use an external flash for fill in due to the loss of light when using the extension tubes and because I am shooting at F11 to F16 for sharper close up shots. The results so far have been very impressive though. The Canon 6 D is amazing for this type of work being light and easy to handhold. Its full frame sensor makes short work of high ISO and makes cropping in tighter a cake walk. For more of my work check out www.seanmills.weebly.com
