Drone Fly on Ragwort - a photo on Flickriver

            Taken at Carr Mill Dam St Helens, Merseyside.  Canon EOS M with Sigma 105 Macro lens using the Mount Adapter EF-EOS M.  I used this camera just to prove that it was still suitable for this purpose rather than using an SLR.

I bought the EOS M when Argos were selling them off for less than £200 due to bad revues of the camera.  Once the firmware update was installed the auto focus improved greatly.  What a steal that was!  I wish they would reduce the EOS M3 so that I could get another bargain like that!
