Another test shot with the 180mm macro. I had much more success this evening with the lens. The lens performs very much better with manual focus than with AF. Which... for a macro lens... this is how I shoot.. I will test the AF more this weekend... but my leeper rate this evening really improved.

Single flower... the background is a mirror finish construciton paper reflection the single flower.

580ex bounced of the ceiling... 430ex hand-held and pointed a few inches above the flower at about a 60 degree angle. The 430ex had a pink gel on .



Have a look at the full image... lots of details.

Thanks,
