Very beautiful macro ! Razor sharp. Which lens ?

My camera (Sony DSC-R1) is actually a fixed-lens camera with a Zeiss Vario-Sonnar lens. The focal length range is 24-120mm, so I sort of had to "cheat" a little to get a macro effect by mounting the camera on a tripod and zooming in. It's going to have to work until I can afford a proper dSLR or a point and shoot.

I own one Sony DSC-H2, too. I use it from time to time, mainly for macro. Mount a Raynox DCR-250 (or a 150)on your Sony and will get razor sharp macros. It's really cheap.
See the snail in my gallery. I shot it with a Nikon D90, 50mm 1.8D prime lens + Raynox DCR-250.
Congratulations for your photos.

I'll have to give that a try. Thanks for the tip!
