Borderline. I consider 1:1 the end of closeup and the start of macro. Shot a little slow though. I would trying upping the ISO to get the shutter speed up a bit. Has a little motion blur it looks like.


Not sure why, but call me JJ.
I used to hate math but then I realised decimals have a point.

Borderline - macro for me begins with a max FOV width of about 5cms at the point of focus.
