| | | Re: Unidentified wasp with black and white antennae Bruce,
Only purchased the camera in September.
I am using a a Sony f2.8 macro lens and am using the camera on
its default "Macro" setting. Do not have an external flash source yet.
Working on a limited budget and hope to get flash as & when money
becomes available. What do the extension tubes do? are they like a
teleconvertor?
Thanks
Gordon
P.S. I found the Stony Stratford NR on my MK O/S map
and visited last Saturday. Looks quite interesting especcialy
along the Ouse. |

If you can get some photos of yours you might try posting on Bugguide.. experts usually visit there. Order Hymenoptera - Ants, Bees, Wasps and Sawflies - BugGuide.Net
