How to Photograph Insects | Photographing Damselflies with Canon 100 mm f/2.8 Macro Lens

How to Photograph Insects. I'm photographing Damselflies at a beautiful location close to home. Watch for plenty of tips on getting close to your subject - and camera settings. In this video I'm using a combination of a 100 mm macro lens with a 1.4x extender - using my lenses I can only do this with the addition of an extension tube; watch the following video if you want to see how this combination works together: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ui1XuDn_Sl4

Filmed with Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX500.
Equipment: Canon 1DX Mark i, Canon 100mm f2.8 Macro lens; Canon EF Mark iii 1.4x extender; Canon 25mm extension tube; Induro CT404 tripod.

My equipment: If you purchase any of these items, that I use and recommend, through the Amazon links I receive a small commission which is massively appreciated and it helps me to keep creating new videos.
