First Attempt With A Raynox 250

[JDholic]

Received it this morning, but only had the opportunity to take a wander in the garden when I got home.

One thing I noticed, the minimum focussing distance is reduced. I'd spent all that time getting used to the Tokina without the Raynox!! Shouldn't take long though.

I would have liked the fly to turn round to face me, but nature never does what it's told.

C&C Please.

I agree it would have been better if the fly had turned round... he obviously wasn't in the mood for posing though. One thing I would say is really try to get the focus on the eye. I have the Raynox 250 as well and it takes a bit of getting used to so I say just keep practising

Couldn't agree more. Good first attempt though

Better than my first attempt I am sure you will master the Raynox very soon

Thanks guys, off to the zoo today, so not macro practise.

It's a different technique to just having a macro fitted, I looked down the viewfinder the first time and went "wooaahh" Then the fly flew away.
