OK, you have me beat! Then again, so do most of the above. That is not to say your photo is anything short of amazing. And you are able to take great macro without an EVF. I have an X-A5 and never even tried macro with it (yet)

Not sure who's responsible for these joints, but their motto was clearly "The solution is more solder."

I'd say for a lot of the macro I do I would end up using the LCD screen anyway. I'm usually using a tripod and often not in a position where using a viewfinder would be comfortable. Still I've been pondering an upgrade for a while. I have a few young grandchildren and the autofocus in the X-A1 using its kit lens isn't too fast!

Possibly not technically macro at the small end of the scale (it could have been more than 10X on the sensor), a roughly 1mm long daphnia (on a prepared slide) shot through my microscope with the aid of panoramic stitching:

Along the lines of @Petrochemist's post, this is a midge larva (a frame from a video I took a long time ago).
