Fantastic photos!! ![]() Also what adapter did you use for the lens reversal ? price details would be much appreciated please. Thanks, I was hoping your cam to be a Canon. I have a 550D. Where from did you buy it. Is it on Ebay ? I am going to order right away.!! Last edited by Fordmanchau : 11th May 2012 at 15:13. |

Ah, very cool photos. Just remember though, wider the lens, higher the magnification (when reversed) and lesser the DOF. So, zoom out whenever need be. Yep, I think we had a long discussion on the DSLR thread about rear elements. Damage to rear element can cause a loss in IQ. But yes, get an old manual focus lens and reverse it, you should be good to go. | |

I am anyways planning to buy the 50mm prime for myself and will use it as a primary lens. I am not sure if I can get a decent price for my 18-55mm if I sell it so though it would be put to good use for macro's through the adapter. HW, any recommendation on good old manual focus lens ?estimated price range ? | |

I have tried lense reversal,double-lens and closeup filters(ebay ones ![]() From all these what I felt was(greatly influenced by CleverMax) we should go for Raynox CDR 250 . Try to source one of these.Check out clevermax's clicks using Raynox.If you can put some effort,you will get some mind blowing results than lens reversal and all other techniques for that price. | |

My suggestion would be to get canon FD lens as they can't be mounted on regular DSLRs and are usually cheap. Quote:
You can use anything that can act as a scrim or a reflector. I have gotten good results with an A4 paper as a scrim. Also, check this thread on FM: Post Your Set Up! - FM Forums It has so many setups that you can use to diffuse the flash. | ||
