Thank you!
It was a Panasonic GX-85, Pana/Leica 45mm macro, Godox tt685o with small softbox. f8, 1/200 sec. Single shot handheld cropped to about 75% of original shot. I could have gotten this mag without cropping but find I get much better depth of field and higher good shot rate if I pull back and crop a bit.
