Hello Danny I suspect it is Graphium weiskei or G. kosii, on the edge of the green area Kurt OK Kurt, thanks. In that case, it's 99.9% certainly weiskei, easily available from New Guinea. G. kosii is indeed similar, but only found (as 2 different subspecies) from New Britain and New Ireland, both g...

Nice to see some less typical species here. Your M. aega is a female form; it also comes in all brown and mixed brown-blue forms. The males are always shining blue, lighter in color than many of the other blue species. I agree that M. sulkowskyii is a beautiful species; it occurs in multiple subspec...

Thanks for the info, gentlemen. Condensing things, it's looking like these could be the best choices: 1) Raynox DCR-5320PRO (although I don't know how it may compare to the ITL200 reversed); 2) Mamiya 200/2.8 APO (I like the idea of this very much, since I can get triple use via the Mitutoyo and wit...

Best tube choices to accompany Mitutoyo 5x and 10x
I'm looking to make my first venture into objective lenses and could use a few pointers on the best tube lens to accompany them. First, a little about the setup and use intended: I'll use a Sony A7RIV; for this project, I mainly want to shoot butterfly wing patterns from about 2x to 5x, but I can se...

Micael tried the illuminator and it broke on his first attempt, so his test results have nothing to do with the lack of flocking of the illuminator. Still, the lack of flocking in the illuminator (and the fact that it broke on first use) says a lot about the lack of care taken in the design and con...
