Wolf Spider

This one is a full sized 100% crop of the spider's face. It was taken just as the others, but with a Nikon 5T on top of the 6T at full 12x optical zoom. I was about 9 inches away from his face. Funny thing is, I hate spiders.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ20
1/60s f/8.0 at 72.0mm iso80 with Flash full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

I am planning to buy a second 6T for my FZ20.
But seeing your images, there is a sensible loss of quality between the ones in which only 1 diopter is used and those made with both 5T + 6T.
(Although in this picture there is not sharp focus; I figure it must become tremendously difficult to get the focus, with a DOF narrower than 2 mm).

He's beautiful, and I don't like spiders either.
