Sea urchin munching on my dirty glass serious macro

Everything in the tank looks weird through a reversed 50mm.

You're doing some nice stuff with that setup, keep it up!

Are you reversing your 50 onto another lens?

Here's a link to an earlier thread where he discussed his technique.

Hey thanks guys. I'll post a picture of the rig. You will get
a good laugh from it.
I'm down in the keys this weekend looking for some more crazy macros...I only wish my underwater housing had arrived already.

I've tried to hold a reversed 50mm in front of my 100mm macro and it's tough to work with. The DOF is basically nothing but you can get some serious magnification though! Are you just reversing the 50mm lens to the body or reversing the 50mm after a normal lens in already in place?

wow great pics!!

That is kind of a scary shot. But cool none the less.

 

[kryppy]

Yup, you got it right. No dof and tough to work with.
I wish I could reverse the lens on the body, but I am a P&S guy...for now.

Here is another of the beastie.

No DOF, no doubt!! This lizard shows it well.

The rigs. Note the masking tape.

My new ebay A80 with 28mm.

50mm
If you look, you can see the modified rear lens cap that keeps it open. took me a few days to figure that out.. No more vignetting
for me!!Stupid FD mount. haha
