Here’s my first pass at my first composition with the Voigtlander 12mm f/5.6 FE. Taken this weekend on a trip I took with my dad for father’s day.

Ronny, absolutely superb macro images! Not only on this page but quite a few of them, of course. And, thank you for your kind words.

Ronny your macros just keep getting better and better and I did not know that was possible !
The inflight dragons are amazing as is the detail on that insect with the very interesting antlers
Now here is the question I have - How much of an advantage is the A9 in getting those dragons in flight? I know your exceptional skills are the key, but do you feel the camera gives you any advantage?

Thanks Birdie you too kind
Tracking is nice .. when or if it finds and locks it hangs on .. large birds are no problem .. but it actually hang on even on the dragonflies for a while and they are veryvery fast in the air
Of course, fast AF has importance .. however, it is not 100% it must really struggle for such have fast insects and it does not lock all the time .. but I got much more keepers with A9 .. when I MF with A7r II on dragonflies
So yes A9 gives me advantage and of course 100-400GM

Ronny, thanks so very much for the reply. Those shots you just posted are truly amazing, especially the manual focus ones !!! You have some extraordinary skills.
Jim, beautiful shots of such a lovely looking inn.

I love your Burnside photos and that's the lens I should probably get, but this Sol 45 came up at an irresistibly low price, so I took a chance! (The Burnside is pretty expensive in comparison.)
Thank you! Yes, it is pretty expensive, but the build quality is more solid and I'm told that it is a complicate construction. The widest petzval type lens ever made. I was fortunate to be one of the beta testers and got to keep it afterwards.
