@Gandhi: Good Macro Pictures. I never knew that a product like
Raynox DCR-250 exist. How useful is it, specially when it comes to focussing?

@Anirban: Awesome picture! Great timing.

It's a great tool I must say. It enlarges the image by 8x. The glass quality is amazing with very good sharpness.

Focusing takes time to learn as the DOF is very very narrow, 1-2 mm at max

. So just a small camera shake and you get an out of focus image. So I keep the aperture set to f8 almost always to get maximum DOF when my 250 is on. The working distance for this lens is around 6 inches irrespective of zoom level on my S3IS. My success rate has been 1 out of 5 for the 250.

Here's a video I had taken using 250 to give you more perspective of how powerful this lens is.
