T2i Macro-Crop · March 9th, 2010, 11:01 PM

Hey all, I hadn't seen this combo before, and as I was perusing my B&H order I thought, what would it look like to shoot on the T2i crop mode with a macro lens? (The new Canon 100mm f/2.8 Macro.) The answer: a huge technical PITA and some pretty interesting shots. Hope you enjoy it.

Some nice shots gathered Erik. Are the judders on the clips due to the wind or something else? I imagine it would be pretty tough to keep things stable at the crop AND macro at the same time.

Thanks Aaron, yes it's pretty tricky. There are some issues with pans and tilts but the violent shaking is the wind.
