Im impressed by the 2nd shot. Is this a normal size ant?
If it is - it is very good indeed.
I would recon the best thing is the longer working distance...

What would you call normal size
This one was about 8mm i would say and quite normal, probably mid range as there are smaller ones as well as bigger ones in these parts. 
And yes i like the longer working distance but it takes a little more getting used too.

It's the increased depth of field that I like.

Iwouldn't say it was better than my Pentax DFA 100mm (maybe just need a little more practice)
But certainly a very good mid range telephoto.
