you are the god of macro photo 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Thank you for the kind words.
Lovely video again! The outtakes are amazing as always 🤣
Thanks! 😃
Really got a lot out of the information you've covered in this video very good mate, I like the outtakes too
Thank you my friend.
Thank you for this comprehensive presentation on depth of field. It's the best I've seen. It also really shows the progress you've made. Even without the outtakes I can see the work that has gone into this video.
Wow, thank you!
Thank you Stewart. That's the best video on macro photography I have ever seen. Really well explained and easy to understand. Spot on mate.
Thank you.
Thanks for the great video....another piece of the macro puzzle falls in place.
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent & well explained :) love the images
Thank you so much 😀
Best wishes mate. Happy birthday from down under
It’s not my birthday day mate lol
This video is a must watch for anyone starting in macrophotography. Thank you for making it! I can't wait to discover the rest of your channel!
Awesome, thank you!
Your technique and the overall quality of your videos has gotten better over the years as well as your talking voice and general expressions. Great video, really like the content..
Thank you.
love the outtakes ... and the videos of course.
Thank you.
Stewart the quality of your videos lately have gotten INSANELY good! Keep it up! You are one of my biggest inspirations.
Are the videos of the insects at macro also using your OM camera?
Thank you. As for the macro video... I have a video coming up all about how I film it.
@@StewartWoodArt can’t wait to see it!
great info, nicely done video.
Glad it was helpful!
Good afternoon from NYC.
Good morning from California
I was enjoying the video, and your shots are so good, i love macro and should do more.
I was just about to stop the video and comment on the narrative. It was a bit too fast and slightly pronounced. However, i then hit the outtakes, and all was forgiven. The nervousness and desire to get perfection in the audio will improve, your photography shows that you like to get it right and there is no question, you have developed the skill, i used to watch a guy, i think he is dutch, but found him hard to watch, although good at the knowledge, i think you have packed more in and educated anyone wanting to delve into the fascinating world of miniature life! Thank you! Im going to check out if you have left any info regarding the kit set up, i think its one that was developed by a guy a couple of years ago and was out of stock when i looked, but would be grateful to know more if it isnt in the More section!
Thank you so much, was getting nervous when people started to watch me and ask questions.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. This is something I have been wanting to learn about and understand. I will have to go over it a couple of more times to fully understand what you are saying.......
Glad it was helpful!
Boom another outstanding video master
Thanks mate.
Big hello from southern India. Great insight here Stewart! Many thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it
Love the outtakes ❤
I really like using my Canon MPE 65mm, although I do like my Laowa 100 mm macro lens a lot, too!
Good choice!
Good video on a subject that most other influencers fail to explain fully understandable. Anyway, the shorter focal length the closer to the subject we must be. I use 100mm but is looking for Canon's EF 180mm. Heavy and bulky but with a distance to the subjects. The only annoying aspect is that we cannot use focus bracketing with flash with Canon so I also use OM System with 60mm in order to get it 😊
Thank you.
Great outtakes
Great video ... I like my OM System macro lenses 90mm and 60mm. Sometimes I go for vintage manual lenses like Vivitar Series 1 90mm f2.5 or Olympus macro 50mm f3.5.
Thank you, I still need to get my hands on the 90mm.
@@StewartWoodArt Should I send it to you for a review?
macro, the challenge I love to do to help me relax , I run the 100mm F2.8 laowa alongside the 25mm 2.5x to 5x also from laowa , mainly on APS-C bodies mind you as I find it a good middle ground between doing macro and studio portraits
That's a great combo for macro.
PS brilliant camera work ( B-Roll)
Thanks mate
The outtakes on this are absolutely hilarious 😂😂😂 ‘are you cold? No why? Your nipples out’ 😂
That was a good one!
My bridge camera lets me to take macro photos from 1cm in wide angle mode and focusing distance is 3m at max zoom. But both are not enough for small inects like jumping spiders...
Can I get more magnification with 58mm macro lens attachment? Or those macro lenses are just close-up filters?
I should think so.
KooKoo...😂
Lol
good video. enjoyed the outtakes. do you know darron matthews as your in cannock?
Not that I know of
