Tried out my +4 close-up lens on a spider in the bathroom. I had it fixed on my Sony 50mm f1.4 and it worked pretty well. Annoyingly I misremembered the f stop that the lens is at it's sharpest (I thought it was 2.8 but it's actually 3.3) so the photos probably aren't quite as sharp as they could have been, but then I didn't have a tripod either so it's probably not that significant. And so, without further ado, here he is.
I think it's come out OK, you can make out his (or her) hairy legs quite well. It's far from perfect of course but it is my first go.
That's a bleeding tarantula!
