Actually, it's incredible what a good photographer can do. The Canon
gear is irrelevant. The same photos could have been taken with Nikon or
Pentax.


Perhaps you can share some links to similarly outstanding macro shots
taken with Nikon or Pentax? I'd love to see em, cause every time I
stumble across a great macro gallery it's taken with Canon gear. I
wonder why that is?

Quite a few macro, micro, nature images, et al. Mostly using Nikon gear.

Oh come Gordon I am sure a Nikon can do much better then that.
I don't think many if any of those shots are even a Macro shot, more
like close ups
with way too much Photoshop.
