Macro Lens Filter

February 21st, 2009

160312816922Recently I bought my self a marco lens filter. It comes with three other close-up filter lens, +1+2+4 close-up. The lens was purchase from e-bay. Seems not to trust any sales from e-bay but hey… someone bought my Sony PS1 through e-bay also. If he can trust me why not me trust the seller.

Anyway, back to the filter lens. The marco lens work real fine but it only works with my 18-55mm lens. It sucks big time with my 55-200mm lens as it is totally blur out. I have to stand very far away from the object in order to get a shot. The 18-55mm lens work well but the getting a focus on the object is quite difficult. Wish I can establish a link with the lens. (I want to capture this picture, snap now). So as you can see below some of the photos are not up to expectation but I feel that I am getting better in using the filter. Now my checklists for next macro shot would be:

  1. Use tripod if possible.
  2. Take ants photo at parents house. (The ants at my house seems to disappear since I got the filter lens).
  3. Take photos of insects.
  4. Make own macro studio, this include a modify lighting.

Well hope to take marco photos again. Need to complete checklist.

This is not a macro shot but it shows you how I prepare the bubbles for the macro shots.

All the pictures sizes are maintain and no cropping was made. Hey!!! why do you need cropping when it is a macro shot.

Feel free to comment and enjoy the pictures.
