Similar situation, i'm not interested in video at all on a dslr i just want all out still performance within my budget. I keep looking at 2nd hand 50d / 60d and there are some bargains to be had and i think would compliment my aging but still capable 40d.

Is that an image stack?good DOF

id like to keep to crop as for macro and wildlife it seems to give bonus to both. im really really hoping the 7d mk 2 when it eventually comes out will be the camera i have for a long time.
I was still deciding between the nikon d7100, but the lenses are expensive amoung other reasons.. and i would want the 5x macro from canon at some point i know!

Aye a stacked image, first and only attempt so far. Bought a cheap macro rail of the bay and it was the smallest thing i could find to try it out on.

It wasn't easy. And after not very long hand just can't do it! I think the fly was made with 4? I was reasonably happy with that as a second go.
That was with a 400d

messing around with my new olympus f/2.8 60mm 2 reflective sheets, first thing i noticed was the amount of dust around took ages to brush all the dust off.

Just a few macro shots of the same flappy fly thing but from different angles since he/she was an attention hoe and didn't move.

Some good shots there yourself! I took a bunch of Bee shots on the same walk that I got the ones I posted but aperture was a bit too slow to get any sharp enough in the light I had. Bees don't stop moving
