Nikon D70 and a 105 mm macro lens, the details are stored in the jpeg file. Using a 105 mm macro lens without a tripod is not simple even in sunlight, using a flash or several is helpful.

Nikkon D70 and a Sigma 105mm macro lens, at 1:1 on manual focus.
There is a trade off between the quantity of light and frying the subject singed bugs not make good photos.
It was a very bright day, I don't usually acheive that depth of field even with a flash.
For night time expeditions, I've built a 16 LED light ring that force fits to the end lens. It assists the flash, but its best use is getting the focus right in the first place.
But some bugs only appear at night or when its damp & gloomy.. E.g this catapillar.

So now 4hv has the Midwich Squirrel (and horse from TDU on the other picture thread).
And the TDU brushtail possum and baby....
Taken from our back door with the Nikon D70s and camera flash. I have just found that my old film Nikon hotshoe flash can be used at a pinch and with the flash pointed away fixes the red, green or other coloured eye problem.

I Posted a picture of a swan on its nest last month.
The good news is the signet has hatched.
The bad news is that this is the only one that survived out of 6 eggs. The nest was quite close to the shore, so I suspect a preditor had raided the nest..
