Thank you! It is a twin photo of another taken vertically with MP-E 65mm. Qualitatively, the differences are minimal. Maybe slightly in favor of the Canon as far as some details are concerned (but it depends on the pitch used, the angle and various factors, it is not so much merit or demerit of the lens), but here I managed the light a little better.
I didn't include the whole leg on the right because the final part of the tarsus of this "was" bumblebee was missing.

But what a beautiful macro.
Did you use a micrometer slide? What kind of lighting?
Is the image cropped or does it enlarge the lens in this way? I'm using the sigma 105 macro 1:1 plus rainox 250, but I would like to switch to this lens. Fantastic rendering congratulations.
Thank you!

Hi, there is a very slight cutout, but it's pretty much all of the 24.2 MP of the 80D.
I used a micrometer hot shoe and fixed artificial lighting (LED spotlights).
The magnification in this case does not reach 2:1. I don't remember the value, I would say between 1.5x and 2x.
The Laowa 100mm compared to the Sigma 105mm does not have AF and the focus ring goes from infinity to 2:1 with a fairly short travel. Used by hand, so you have to get used to it at first, but it's a great macro lens.
I also have the Sigma 105mm and I continue to use it, perhaps in more "carefree" outings without choosing tiny subjects. The Laowa covers more situations and is certainly the lens I rely on when it comes to focus stacking at magnifications up to 2x
:).

May I ask you what micrometric slide you used? The R7 does it automatically, but in certain conditions, it is difficult to manage.
Thank you

Hi, sorry for the delay. I used the NiSi 200s. To be exact, it is a fusion of 56 shots. ;-)

Thank you very much. I'll take a nisi too. Thank you!

Maybe consider the 180s (released later) which costs less and is shorter and lighter. In any case, when you use a micrometric slide, you never take advantage of all those millimeters in advance. :)

Yes, in fact I thought the same thing. If the 180 has the advance with the millimeter vernier like the 200s, I go 180s otherwise without references it becomes difficult.
Thank you!

Do you think they are the same apart from the 180 mm stroke?
Thank you.

Ok the 200s has quick forward and quick release that the 180 doesn't have.
They replied to me from the assistance. Thank you

The 180s for advancements has the graduated manapola-drum of the 200s while the 180 has only a knob without notches.
Each full turn of the 180s knob makes 1 mm of feed (offset), according to what is written on the card. Also in this case just like the 200s, while with the 180 the feed is 1.25mm per full rotation.
In the 200s, the rapid advancement of the Arca-Swiss compatible plate is obtained by pressing the yellow button-clamp. I never use it and I think that eliminating it in the 180s was an improvement. Maybe it's just my unjustified fear, but I wouldn't want abusing it to create a "game" that doesn't make the plate more stable.
I've never tried a 180s, but it seems to me that it combines the best of the previous two sleds.

It seems simpler than the 180s let's say.
If it has the graduated drum with 1 mm x turn it is ok. Thank you!

To be taken now. Directly from Nisi

They give discounts several times a year. Next one will probably be Black Friday.
The graduated drum allows for uniform and therefore more precise feed steps.

Fine.
