Haha wow those are awesome! I like the detail, great job you did well getting the focus area right.

Nice! Is that 1:1 ratio?

aha fuckin cancer one is sick, so true too.

Haha, thanks Chan. Best $185 bucks I've ever spent!



Thx much! And yes, its 1:1. This was only the second time I have shot with the new macro lens. I freaking love it! 1:1 is pretty much the sex. Haha...



Thx! Haha, yes very true. I don't smoke, but I do seriously find cigarettes very interesting, if you didn't notice...

GAH, The details!!!!! ARGH.. can't get over it!!! -__-

Now i want a 1:1 macro lens.

Edit: What lens is this that only cost you $185?

I straight up gave my reverse ring away today cause of this lens! The detail using this compared to the reverse ring is just unreal. Never gonna go back.

Haha, its the most legendary of all macro lenses! There were three versions of this lens produced. Kiron 105mm f/2.8, Lester A. Dine 105mm f/2.8, and the Vivitar Series 1 105mm f/2.5. Google it! Nah, but mine is the Vivitar Seris 1 model. Love it!

Sounds like a good alternative. I was eventually gonna get a canon 100mm f/2.8 macro. But i don't think i'll use the AF or IS when doing macro work

I was gonna get the Nikkor 105mm 2.8 but then I looked around in some forums and this lens was so praised. Then I also decided that I wouldn't use AF... This lens has auto indexing on my camera so that is pretty much all I need... I lucked out with this lens. Most of them I found were going for ~$300. I ended up getting if for a steal imo...

well maybe $300 is a steal too
