This guy caught me without my macro lens. I was out shooting birds with my 100-400L when I saw this guy having his lunch. Camera was a 40D.

VG considering. Surprising the caterpillar's hairs offered no defence.

Haven't you heard? "Hair today, gone tomorrow"!

That is so sharp and clear, it is scary.

Minimum focus distance I believe is 1.6 meters (about 5 feet IIRC). I don't have a designated macro lens yet either. I use my 100-400L also.
