All I know is the annoying aperture blade petals around lights.
Very good pics of those house spiders. I find them in my wood pile, then they invade the garage. They are practically invisible as they run toward the house.
The calculator said F2.4 for my camera. I do notice a limit in clarity Depending on how far I zoom in. My new camera has 720mm equivalent zoom, but isn't any better than my 250mm wx220, and this diffraction limit may be why.
New camera: F8, grainy ISO 400, 245mm (about the limit of quality of my macro setup), and cropped some
Same picture cropped to 100%, resized slightly smaller to be similar in scale to the picture below it
Same settings, but 585mm, no worth while gain in quality:
This was my poor attempt at taking pictures of bug bugs... parasites on beetles. I have found other parasites too, but they are just too small. 3-10 times bigger than pollen.
