macros arent that hard, u just need to be prepared to take lots of shots and only get a few keepers.
this is shot handheld, using K200D with 2x TC and reversed SMC "M" 28mm f2.8 lens on front of the TC, onboard flash used also. Yes this was a live insect, it would have been between 5 and 10mm long, so this is very high magnification. I took about 20 pics over a period of about 15 mins, and had these 2 keepers (slight crops only)
you can find more macros ive done here Picasa Web Albums - Jeremy - Insects. All hand held except if there are any of dead flies there. which i used a tripod for.
