My first macro shots of the year! Sold all my Canon macro gear last year and have been struggling to get the new kit working. These were shot with XT-1 and 18-135mm with Raynox 250. Lighting with Nissin I40 flash and homemade diffuser.

Might treat myself to the 80mm macro when it comes but this setup will do in the meantime :)

Nice photos, why the change? This you took with the Canon gear is pretty good.

Thanks David. Basically I fancied a change to Fuji - I shoot a lot of landscapes and the Fuji kit is very good for that and also it is smaller and lighter. There was meant to be a 120mm Fuji macro coming but it got changed to an 80mm and delayed so this has made the macro side tricky! Also if I'm honest I'm maybe not quite as keen as I have been over the last few years so this was part of a general downsizing drive :)
