Some of them are blurry, crappy composition, but I was messing around with this happy.gif Having fun!

One thing I noticed though, is that it's hard to get the lighting right on them.

Used a 28-80mm lens for them....

You guys should try this! tongue.gif (btw, I didn't cut my lens cap. I did this hand held, with no adjustments. Just held my lens backwards happy.gif)

So you did do it! happy.gif
Better than the red light? lol! wink.gif

Yes, lighting indoors with this is very difficult, same with outdoors.
You have to set the exposure quite low outdoors because ALOT more light comes in the camera smile.gif

You should make an adapter lol.
buy a spare body cap for $3.00
And use an old filter to screw it onto reversed happy.gif


e/ omg thank for the inspiration I'm gonna go try takin pics of my mom diamond ring!

those are some interesting macro pics. So you just bought an adapter for your normal lens?
Well some of the pics are a lil bit overexposed but I guess it's because you used a flash or something.

btw that easy button looks so new did you get a new one? biggrin.gif

I didn't buy anything dry.gif I just held my lens (it wasn't attached) close to my camera and snapped away. Some are over exposed because I didn't hold the lens right against my camera.

Oh! I didn't know that you could do that ohmy.gif. So did you use the full manual mode when taking those pictures?? Well then I guess I won't have to buy an adapter after all. I just hope that my apartment isn't too dusty lol.
