Showcase Kiron 105mm f/2.8 Macro Image Thread

[eno789]

A macro lens that goes to 1:1 magnification on its own. The one I have is in Nikon mount.

Pics taken at a local rose garden.

good job mate, you used tripod? OMG really good pictures, does not feel very heavy the lens?

Nice images Brian, the colours are soft and subtle which is a refreshing change from the really strong saturated images usuallyn associated with macro shots.

Wonderful macro, beautiful colors. Great lens!

Thanks guys for the encouragement. I took these all hand-held. The hit rate was a bit lower, but it was a quick stroll before going to work; and there was also a little breeze - I can only imagine that the lens be even sharper on tripod. With some morning fog, the light was even and soft (some may say a little dull, depends on your preference).

At Fresno Blossom Trail last Friday, orchards in full bloom. Used this lens on NEX mainly for macro.

Really like that second one.

One more, non-macro.
