Last macro photos from 5mp dslr

[reefguyty]

I've been learning to shoot macro photos on a 5 megapixel dslr (nikon d40) over the past 6 months or so. I was pretty impressed with the quality I could get on such an outdated camera. I finally felt it was time to upgrade to a better camera. Here are some of my favorite shots from the old d40.

Thanks! The lens I'm using is a 60mm F/2 macro lens by Tamron.

Very nice! Further proves my point that you don't need the latest and greatest rig for awesome shots, just a quality lens goes a long way.

I definitely agree! This was my first lens that wasn't a kit lens. I was amazed at the difference between the two. There is a lot to learn just playing with the depth of field.

Thank you! That red and green acan seems to be popular. The acan in your profile pic looks awesome.
