After a chance chain of events which I won't bore you with, I collected a very cheap D800 with just 15,500 clicks from London on Friday. On my way home I called on Eric for a chat and a cuppa, I also called at UK Digital at Clitheroe on Saturday morning on my way home.

The D800 is very clean, a lovely camera.

The reason I called at UK Digital was to take a look at a macro lens, the Laowa 2X to 5X 25mm f/2.8.

This is one image I took with the Laowa lens at 5X of a ball point pen.

I didn't make any settings on the camera, this is a crop from the original. I can make out my reflection in the ball, which is about 0.5mm dia. This was hand held.



Hi Robert ...glad to see you made it home safely and good to catch up.
