Hi Robert,

I'm Frans ( fotoopa), the brother from Willy. I just look at the RAW file and the body lenght is 11mm, the body diameter is about 2 mm. This dimension is pretty accurate because the capture frame for this flying insects its fix at 65mm for 3872 pixels, so counting the number of pixels give me the correct dimension.

Frans.
