Description

This is a shot from a movie I made of this 2mm fruit fly. They are so anoying and multiply rapidly during the summer. To be able to do this shot, I mounted a reversed 28mm Nikkor lens on my videocamera. You get a magnification like a microscope. Lighting was two LED lamps. They dont get hot and are perfect for insects. CLICK TO PLAY VIDEO IN High Definition

I just viewed the video, awesome work. And as annoying as they are I will try to look at them with a different outlook after that.... :)

Ugh...I HATE fruit flies! Leave an orange or two on the counter for a couple of days and they are hovering over it...a good trap seems to be a wine glass with a bit of wine in it!!! Cheap and effective!!!
