All handheld with a dirty Tamron 90mm Macro. FX Sensor is amazing.

Thanks all, I can't wait to start retouching the images from this camera - all of these have been straight from the camera except the resizing.

Gotta love full-frame sensors. It cuts both ways for macro, however. The depth of field is sooo shallow, and the more you stop down, the more sharpness you lose to diffraction. Still, careful composition can mitigate this.

One of my favorite parts about the D3 line: live-view with 10x mag. for macro focusing. You can't get any more precise than that.
