in my experience, bees are a challenging subject and it takes skills to capture them properly. what the sample shows is that the Q doesn't limit a technically competent photographer excessively - its up to the job in the hands of someone who knows how to use it properly (and will probably do no worse in the hands of someone who doesn't
