A bit soft and OOF but good effort.

Imho, dcr250 is redundant here as you can get the same magnification with just the 105mm. I assume it was a macro lens, right?

it's a macro lens, the maximum closest is 0.5m, but its can't get the magnification like tis without dcr250 oo...:(

sample:
without drc250
22752

with dcr250
22753

OK, my question wasn't clear. I should've asked: was it a 1:1 macro lens or 1:2 (half life size) macro lens :)

Because at 1:1 most dragonfly would fill (exceed, in fact) the frame (1.5 or 1.6 crop factor) easily :)

That first shot of the keys is definitely not 1:1 so it's not really a macro lens, probably a zoom with 'macro feature'.

I find the colour saturation a bit too high to my liking.
