I did try a 1.7x converter on the Lumix but never got any decent results, which was another reason why I opted for a new bridge as they all seem to have bigger optical zoom these days.<br /><br />The macro on the Nikon seems pretty good - I'm posting a few more shots this evening including a Grey Shoulder-knot taken just using the camera without the additional Raynox macro. Looks like it should be good for anything macro-moth sized, but I'll still use the Raynox for smaller stuff.Skevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05601888498478097564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1246763419709722582.post-80589329218809543652014-10-12T19:12:19.450+01:002014-10-12T19:12:19.450+01:00Mark - a few questions....

Were your Heron shots taken with just the camera, or did you have any additional lenses added? What is you new camera's macro facility like?<br /><br />Cheers, SteveSteve Galehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09459545933323958452noreply@blogger.com
