That looks very good. This is a filter that just screws into whatever base lens you are using? What is the rest of your setup?

[Alan92RTTT]

Nikon D5000

The last first groups is just a screwon filter using my 18-105 lens. If you look at the macro shot you can see its just the very center that is in focus. The edges are out of focus and have some chromatic issues. In the right conditions it might look nice. I want to try with my 70-300 and see if I can get a pic without being inches from my subject.

The seconds group is me playing with the flash still using the 18-105.

<~~ Wants a 24mm 1.8 macro

[Alan92RTTT]

yea, a real macro would be nice.

But given I got the filter set for $22 and I got it for the UV, ND and CP filters the marco is a fun bonus

[CoopKill]

Yeah, I have the 3 lense add on macro set. (Forgot name) thet can take some great pics, but have found that using a prime lense with them turns out better than variable.
