I realize this is not drone related, but wanted to share it with the forum members.

Can I stick it in my ear?Need a macro lens to see my micro brain.

In fact it could probably go right through and out the other ear without me noticing....

Hahaha, if you stick it in the ear, look for light at the end of the long tunnel... Haha


Not sure about brain function, but aural labotomy is a new twist...  Chuckles

Wtf is that for?

It's a walking stick, and hidden 30:06 high caliber.... Haha



Yes, a camera lens... Watch the video?

It would be neat to record some underwater scenes, through that lens.

As well, get some great macro shots of insects and minute scenes.

Interesting.  I wonder how good the images are and the price?  I can't find much about it yet except a few more intro videos.  The 2:1 ratio would be nice but it would be a bit of a pain to carry around. Think I will stick with my traditional macro lenses, extension tubes and ring light for now.  Thanks for posting.

Yes, very interesting concept and adaptation.

Places that intrigue me.
It would be cool to look inside an active beehive.
Stare face to face with an interested octopus, in a large aquarium.
Go for an exploration down inside a large bodied ant colony.

Lots of stuff where I would stick that. I can imagine the pics in 36mp blown up, to large canvas prints.

Sometimes I wonder if many of our insects are from other planets. They outnumber all other species combined.

Maybe some day the drones will be able to do that.

Which, do macro photography, or explore under water?

Our Drones are best for a birds eye view.


RedHotPoker

just for a..    inspection

Very interesting

I was thinking of macro at the time but just about anything is possible anymore.

Some interesting possibilities.

Cool!!!!

Wouldn't trust thing.  Looks like Pinocchio, been telling a lot of lies, lol.

Ain't that the truth? ;-)


But you would have proof, on the SD card... Haha

Yes, not to mention, you could drill a hole in the lake ice and explore the depths below... ;-)


Now that, would be very cool... Haha

Yes, I could take that lens to a whole array of wonderful experiments.


Putting it through its paces, in areas not tried before.

Makes me wonder what will be next in the odd and unusual department, where photography is concerned.

Oh, is that what the little grey green men used, when you flew in their swirling saucer?

Did they go in from both ends.... Hahaha

Probe-babble?

I wonder if the Roswell crash aliens used DJI firmware.

Don't you mean it the other way around?

We first got the very first light of circuit boards from crashed UFO tech.

They brought US our current digital world.

Thanks for that. I feel very welcome now
There is a couple of lenses that I can think of.

Looks like a bit of a spoof to me, I’m no photography expert but I have taking hi-res shots of small insects like fly wings with an every day Dslr just need to use lens extensions, the only down side to this is you had to manually focus and it wasn’t easy to keep the hand steady enough to keep the area you wanted in frame and focused, you may corrected me but having a lens that long and thin would exaggerate the shake, just saying like

On reflection this lens could be something used to access small confined areas with the support around it to keep steady but as the video is showing the way its held free hand I would imagine its very difficult to steady and get focus

You don't really need that lens at all.


I took this photo 14 years ago with a Canon 300D, Kenco x2 convertor and the Sigma 105mm macro lens.
I think this is plenty close enough.

Common Garden Spider (UK) about 10-15mm long, in a green house.  Camera supported on a tri-pod.

Yes, these are many lenses that can do similar macro photography.

It's something I wish to explore. More closely. Haha

That looks great. Really get close to the creature. Haha


I love macro and microphotography.
Even electron microscopy...

Will this allow my drone to get a "bird's eye view" if I can get close enough to one?

No, they get all bothered and take us out of the air.

Best to keep your distance from them.
