Nikon D500 ...Sigma 150mm EX F2.8 + 36mm extension tube + 12mm extension tube.
Ok Finally got a decent stacked image of one of my favourite spiders, a jumping spider!
Nine images stacked in PS CS6 portable, processed in DNG, then transformed to Jpg.
With flash exposure 3 secs. (to get enough light to manual focus in LV mode) at F8.
He seems to have 6/8 eyes, two "full beam" front ones, two medium size and two tiny ones + on the side of his head.
The second shot is of a another unknown to me spider, which I have nicknamed the "spiny fruit salad spider" Only three images stacked here, again flash at F8.
It always amazes me that some of these tiny insects have such an amount of bodily detail and such a tiny lifespan, in nature nothing seems to be too much trouble, no matter how short the existence.
