You make it look so easy but the shutter count tells the truth there Around 15-20 shots for every keeper, right?
it doesnt tell the whole story, on the first one I took 1 shot before it flew off, the robber fly stayed put for ages and i took about 20 shots, of which about 10 are as id want, only posted 4 as they are repetitive, The dung fly I took around 6, with 4 being good enough for me, as it didnt move there was no point in posting 4 the same, I took 2 of the fly and prey, this one being the best, the click beetle I took 3 with this being the best and the fly I took 3 of as well, There were other dung flies and flies and beetles that I shot but they look fairly similar so I saw no point in posting them. I can if you want though.
Its far from easy though, dof is so so shallow with the K1

Check out his eBay page, I think he has everything Pentax ever made on there.

Looking for £200 incl postage or swap for a camera, not worried about aperture block, as it for macro and that gets set on the lens
Give me a shout if you have anything 👍👍👍

But the 50mm wouldn't be long enough for me. I'm already struggling to keep distance with the 105mm.
And it depends on where and what you're shooting for a pop up flash to be good enough. If you even have a pop up that is.

This one was on something hanging from a strand of web and spinning and blowing in the little breeze that was blowing, I was surprised I got it at all tbh

Not sure but I think this might be a robber fly
