Thanks Curmudgeon, just hoping the damage is minimal. Still have to send the lens back to Tamron also. It kinda tweaked the EF mount a bit.....

My 5DMIV decided it wanted to take a 28" drop from a table onto commercial carpet, with my 150 to 600 Tamron attached.. Aint good when everything is HEAVY. Still awaiting the outcome.
Took it to KURT'S camera in San Diego since I live an hour away ish. So far it's 98 dollars labor and what ever the EF mount ring cost. It bent right at the two top screws, hopefully by the will of the camera gods, it didn't strip at the mirror housing!
Now I'm trying to set up my 40D to the same same standard. .UMMM not when your 20million mps short... Anywho, rockin' the 40D

Hahaha, Thank all of you for viewing! I thought the she jumper would pounce! Even switched to video mode hoping....but it was not to be. Just sat there as the ant did the "walk on by". That ant had a green mile moment for sure....

This little guy was checking me out. Amazing detail for a
jumper less than a 1/4" long..!

Thanks to you all, still experimenting. Not quite sure what ratio I'm getting, The 100mm L2.8 by itself is 1:1. With the 2X tele attached would make it a 200mm 5.6.. Don't think the 1:1 went to 2:1.... I don't know. All I know is those shots would have scared everything away because the lens hood would have been on the insect. The above shots now are about 12 to 14 inches away..! Huge difference in how close I need to get. Plus the 13mm extension tube between the 2X converter protrusion so it doesn't hit the back glass on the macro lens..

I've been in Colorado winters 11 to -30. You up there are a whole new breed of awesome!
I'm in Fallbrook CA right now.. it has cooled to 91 with 85% humidity as of the moment... WTF..??
