Your competence with the flash has produced two nice shots of the Mini-Macs, Nigel! It is a skill I have yet to learn and practise. Just one suggestion - the first looks even better on my monitor after reducing the greens a bit.

Cheers.

This is number 4, with increased brightness, decreased saturation, and a gentle vignette. I have also applied local contrast enhancement and a bit of sharpening to the flower, to help differentiate the structures and to bring out some detail. Is this any help?

Not keen on 1 or 5, but the rest look very good to me.

As this didn't get any response from the other forum, I'll try it here:-

In follow up to this information from kh... :-

"The shutter stays open throughout. The four shots are taken using electronic shutter method with the sensor being shuffled about in-between each readout. As long as nothing in the image moves it will work. Presumably there will be some shutter speed limitations."

I put forward this suggestion:-

"If that is the case, I was just pondering that to move the sensor 1 pixel might take only a tiny fraction of the time of the set shutter speed. I was then thinking (hoping!), if that is the case, some guideline of shutter speed appropriate for lens focal length might permit even hand-held super-res. shots in suitable light?"

Any ideas here?

Cheers.

Water that looks like cold, wet, flowing, noisy water (i.e. instead of silent cotton wool) - thank you, Nigel. Also nice detailed shots of the lichen. That is a great little lens.

Cheers.
