It's a macro world

-- Brian


Testing the macro capabilities of the Panasonic Leica 100-400mm lens in Butterfly Creek. With a minimum focusing distance of 1.3 meters, I can get up close to my subject while keeping a good shooting distance to leave them undisturbed. Most of these images were taken at a very high ISO between 1,600 to 3,200. Thanks to the latest advancement in camera sensor technologies these days, I don't have to worry much about using high ISO, I know that I can always clean them up later at post.
