    Macro + Flash

    I've not really mastered macro on the X-100, but then again I don't often use the mode either.
    I did try out the inbuilt flash today, and this is the result:

    Exposure 1/1000 @ f5.6
    ISO 3200

    Thanked by kyteflyer.

    Well done. I haven't managed to get a decent macro shot out of the X100 at all. Don't even really try anymore. The closest I managed was the following, shot in order to see how the bokeh was working... but it wasn't really a macro, IMO, it was a closeup.

    Any flowers I have tried to get have ended up duds, so I'm impressed with yours!!
