[Leica] IMG: Hand-held 1:1

[Jim Nichols]

As I roamed the yard looking for subjects, the clouds started sprinkling 
on me.  As I started in the back door, I noticed a black ant, 
approximately 15mm in length, on the storm window frame, which is 
somewhat corroded after 50 years.  I set the Leica-R 60mm at 1:1 and got 
him in focus.  I had never used this lens this close to a subject, so 
did not know what to expect. Cropped and straightened, he displays 
whiskers fore and aft that I could not see with my normal glasses.  At 
f/5.6 and 1/500 in low light, the ISO was racked up to 4000.
