Dear Harold,
Thanks for reply. This photo was taken with a D500 with Nikkor 105.0 mm f/2.8 lens at 105mm, f/6.3, 1/200s and 2000 ISO.
I don't have experience with lighting yet, but might do it in the future. I agree that DOF can be much better, so perhaps an even smaller aperture is necessary. I chose 6.3 because I thought I need a shutter speed of 1/200s was needed to minimize camera shake, while I normally wouldn't go beyond an ISO of 2000 with D500.
OK. The camera has an excellent specification. The VR may be your answer.
I almost never shoot at wider than f8, mostly at f11, and that is on m4./3. You would need a bit smaller to get equivalent DOF. (For this particular subject, where much additional DOF is of little value, you could go wider)
I use ISO 400 as my default, normally using 800 for higher magnifications, even with flash.
Harold
