Took the dog for a walk in the yard and happened to spot this leaf on the back of my truck
Figured I would give it a go for the first time with macro on a live subject that usually never moves for hours at a time.
Dug out my Pentax 1,2,3 extension tube set and the SMC M-f2 / 50mm lens and tripod.
Have only messed around in the office with this setup to get an idea of how close I need to be, or should say, how close I have to be to focus with the different length tubes.
The picture is with all three sections installed with the lens and that puts me about 1.5 to 2.5 inches from the subject.
Shot wide open at f2 with 2 second shutter delay mounted on tripod at ISO 100 with 1/8s shutter speed.
Just a side note; the exif shows 70mm.(of course it is actually 50mm)
Forgot to change it from the last manual lens mounted on the K7 but since using the 2 second shutter delay on tripod the camera automatically cancels SR.
I put a question mark after the thread title cause I am no moth expert but is what I found during a quick search on Google
