:lol:
I bought some macro lenses off eBay very cheaply CLICK HERE (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MACRO-Close-Up-Lenses-for-Canon-EOS-300D-350D-400D_W0QQitemZ230142812499QQihZ013QQcategoryZ30070 QQcmdZViewItem). I had some for my Kodak (I've just sold them on) and was very pleased with them... so I thought it worth a try on my Canon. I was sceptical though, thinking that they wouldn't work as well because the lens revolves with the lenses attached, where as with my Kodak they remained fix while the camera lens revolved to focus. Does that make sense? :thinking:
Well I had a decent play with them tonight, and am quite pleased with the results :eek: There are even a few for Mr Venemators taste :lol:
I think they will keep me happy doing macro shots until I can stomach loosening my purse strings far enough to buy the real deal ;)
C&C deeply appreciated! Oh and click on any of them to see the big versions.
