Crash Fistfight posted:Can someone explain this lens reversing for me? There are adapters that one can use to attach a lens to a camera in reverse. From what I can understand, this apparently moves the lens elements farther away from the sensor (like a bellows or extension tube would) and thusly gives you a shorter focusing distance and greater magnification. I think it only really works with lenses of smaller focal lengths (i.e., not telephotos), though I could be wrong. William T. Hornaday fucked around with this message at 21:28 on Feb 20, 2010 |

ricepaddydaddy posted:How much better is a ringflash over a normal speedlite for macro? I would love the Canon MP-E65 for my next macro lens, but I don't really want to shell out nearly $1k for a flash only for macro.. Here is Brian Valentine's (Lord V) flash setup for his MP-E 65. No idea whether it's better than a ringflash, but it certainly seems more than sufficient for him.

You'd probably get gunned down by the police if you try taking that thing out in public.

Is anyone here using focus stacking, or is everyone mostly just using tiny apertures and a buttload of light? I figure the latter is easier for things that aren't inclined to sit still for very long.
