In need of Photo Box help!!!

These look so nice what camera are you using??

I'm looking at a cannon t2i right now and a 100mm macro lens. I'm pretty sure I'm going to pick it up the camera if the guy wants to trade for my extra iPhone 4s.

I use micro fourthirds cameras. I think the ones of the bees were shot using a Panasonic Lumix GF-2 and a 14mm lens. We have some macro lenses now that take some great portraits, but this lens is also capable of taking some nice shots.

Here is some of the pics I took of my BEL and my Killerbee.

They aren't perfect and I'm really not happy with my camera. I'm definitely going to get a macro lens and a new camera here soon.

I think you need more mild. I have one of these little mild covering configurations and I can never get enough mild with the lighting offered. Try getting the covering out in some sunshine and see if your outcome is better. Or you could try getting a few more "daylight" lighting.
