Took the camera to Lowes and opened up the lens and let it rip.

Thanks, UTMike. I use it on the little Fujifilm X-T20 is the camera that I use on my automated macro/micro rig so it has been mostly an indoor camera. A small camera is nice, however, the size does have its drawbacks. One is that it is quite difficult to keep the palm of my hand from touching the buttons on the back causing menus to open. My face touches the "touch screen" when I hold it to my eye which causes other things to happen. Lastly, my eye does does not mate up well with the viewfinder which is near flush with the camera. I have an eyecup coming this week with hopes that it will solve that problem.

Small cameras have their advantages of weight and convenience of carrying, however, I like the medium size ones for their ergonomics, fit, and feel.

Muddyvalley, I could have ten thumbs on my hands and none of them would be green. So...to photograph flowers, I go where the flowers are which is "Lowes" for they have row upon row of different varieties of flowers that I can get close to without laying on the ground or having grounds people watching over me. I found that they water the plants in the morning so, if I'm lucky, there will still be some water droplets for me to catch on the flowers.

I know the feeling. Pretty much everything I plant doesn't make it.

I do kinda like that little octopus flower.

I think you've got the hang of that lens, sippy.

Thanks, Kpmac. It's fully manual so the camera is unaware of the lens. It takes a learning curve, a bit of practice, and a lot of luck.
