Looks like a challenging situation. Highlights are slightly blown, camera is struggling to keep details in the greens. It would be nice to have another brand for side-by-side DR comparison.

Great shot...both are the same pic right?X1 macro can only do it at 30cm and more...anything less will be blur.
