Extra Information - _TNY_8881

Attulus terebratus jumping spiders are small. Males like this one are about 4 mm / .16" in body length so higher magnification is certainly useful.

 

This shot was taken using the Canon MP-E65mm f/2.8 1-5x Macro lens set to 3.9:1 magnification.

 

The reason I know the exact level of magnification is that the lens actually stores the level of magnification in the photo's EXIF information. Photoshop/Lightroom/Bridge don't access this info so once edited, the level info is gone, but if I use EXIFTool on the original file (RAW or JPEG), it can display the mag for me.
