I have always struggled with macro shots on the Q, I wish they had released the 09 Macro lens but I think I may have found a solution for me. I tried the cheap Chinese extension tubes, however the working distance is way too close with any of the original Q lenses . Instead I have mounted the A series 28mm 2.8 lens in reverse on the original K-Q Pentax adapter. The working distance was a reasonable few inches and I think the final result is the best I have been able to obtain from the Q for macro.

Yeah, that's a very decent macro result there. Nice find.

06 lens + RAW, LR mobile

Both taken with 05 Toy Lens + RAW + LR mobile

So, while I wait for my 01 lens to arrive, I thought I'd go out and take the 05 lens I have with me. I didn't have much hope for it but looks like I snagged something usable after some RAW sorcery.

looking at this on a pc monitor, it looks like I lost a lot of sharpness and clarity on this one.
06 lens + Slow flash, wind blowing. I really need to learn how to shoot moving objects.

Well, the father of the current owner handed ownership over to his son some years ago ... no he is going to court to claim back the ownership.
Maybe the razor wire is just the outcome of a "normal" German family dispute
