Macro Video

Hi all!

Thought I would go right out on a limb and try some macro video.
Well kind of.

No 7D here just the good ole' 350D.
Needed to use flash, so shutter times were slower than I would have liked. Will try again under better lighting, so I don't need to use flash as the end result is jerky at best.

Thought I would post my efforts, as I would love to see others give this a go.

274 images

Reversed 50 on 50
Camera flash, home-built snout
Shutter speed- 200
F6.3 ( Just checked then,I shot this at 6.3, I thought it was still set at around f16..... funny funny, ok, I'll try this again with a bigger DOF. )
Home built pistol grip


I'm sure I can do better than this... I'm saving for a 7D.

Anyway, I thought others might like to see.
This is my first attempt at this, freehand, with panning and tilting of the camera, no image stabilisation either.
