Saw this little fella crawling around a flower earlier this morning.
I must have disturbed him as he headed straight for me as I was lining up the shot.

Pentax K10D and Vivitar 100mm f2.8 macro.

Well if you aren't using that 180mm macro ....

Actually probably something in the AF macro line would be handy as I only have manual lenses (Apart from a Sigma 50mm EX DG which I never use as its too short for my liking).

Bought a Metz 58 AF-1 on a whim just before xmas and to be honest I now realise I have no need for it as my Pentax 360 flash does all that I need and I dont require all the bells and whistles on the Metz.
It is all boxed and has never actually been used, just opened to make sure the unit was in there.

Looking to trade for something interesting lens wise .. the unit is in the UK and I will be back in less than a fortnight so could sort something out then if anyone is interested.

When I was in the UK I dealt mobile phones on Ebay.

I used to hide bidders identities because the phone business on Ebay was full of dodgy characters who used to look at auctions, see who was bidding on what and contact them via ebays private messaging offering them the same phone at a cheaper price. Im sure that happens on other types of auction.

Well that will teach me to read the first listing before making a comment .

As for a relisting after a bad auction, I never bothered waiting .. relisting costs peanuts on a auction with no BIN or reserve price, as long as you get the seller fees back thats the main thing.
It takes approx 2 weeks to get the relisting and seller fees back so if you want a reasonable turnover there is no point waiting.

Of course he could be purely legit and all the comments here mean diddly squat.

Actually I would say from the new auction that whoever won the lens last time wanted to pay by some other means than Paypal (due to the fact he now has Payment by Paypal only in big bold red wording plastered all over the description).

It wouldn't make much difference with the amount of shots you are presently taking but having seen stacked macros taken with 30 exposures and upwards then I should think you would have need of a rail.

If you are happy with just 3 or 4 shots per stack then no, you probably dont need one.

I think if you are going to get into stacking then a macro rail may be the way to go.

I must admit I do like your stacking shots though.
I had a play a few months ago and just couldn't get on with it .. I seem to get on better using a lower aperture.

I may have another crack at it as I really didnt give it enough time.

They are excellent, the colours are fabulous.
I must admit when people (That don't have a Pentax) comment about my pictures the colour is always mentioned.

Number 3 is my favourite.
