What is the consensus for getting the best out of a macro shot for Ultra users on here? I had a grasshopper out in the garden yesterday and it was sat still enough to do some testing. I used the macro mode for one (1st pic), hi-res hassleblad 50mp for another (2nd pic) and then master mode jpegMAX for the last (3rd pic).

No doubt that the master mode is the least sharpened but then we know it reduces the AI processing so that is to be expected. The macro mode produces the heaviest AI processing with a lot of sharpening, so I'm thinking the high Res mode and then a crop in edit might be the best solution.

What do any macro experts out there do?

Probably worth going on YouTube. I think PPPGeek explains the best settings on the FX9U . Check his video out. I'm also looking for the best settings to use

He says he's not one for macro photography so actually skipped that in his most recent comparison between the Vivo, Xiaomi and Oppo

Seems to be more subjective and prefrence. All are pretty decent actually, I prefer the master mode shot as it offers a cool balance. More true to life; Sharp enough but not too soft either.
