Getting some experience with the Leica Elmarit-R 60mm Macro on the 
X-E1.  Shooting with Auto ISO works fine, and allows me to set a shutter 
speed to avoid movements of the camera and the subject.  An aperture of 
f/4 is about the right compromise between ease of focusing and a 
desirable DoF.

Finally caught up with the Tiger Swallowtail in a proper pose.

Comments and critiques welcomed.

An earlier post of the camera/lens combination did not appear in LUG 
mail at my computer.  It is repeated here:
