Reverse Lens Shooting ๐Ÿ˜Ž

in macro โ€ขย  7 years agoย  (edited)

Found this old picture, I took it a long time ago (about 4 years ago!).
I remember I took the picture using 50mm f/1.8 (canon) while using it as a reverse lens to get some good macro shoots.

Hy @Fofi,
Nice focussing for a rev lens shot.
I know how it is to work with a rev lens converter.. very tricky with a focusdepth of less than a hair :D
i sartet marco photography with a rev lens adapter, switched to some extension tubes, untill i bought a sigma 105mm F/2.8 macro lens. with some good equipment it gets much easier.
you still have a very narrow focus depth when wide open but if you close it down to F/22 or f/32 it gets better .. the only problem then is the amount of light you need. :D
Hope to see more of you in future!
kind regards @ricksmitth

Actually, I didn't even use the reverse ring converter on this one. I was just holding the lens, which made it much tricky. I just ordered that lens online to try again take some macro shots.
unfortunately, I got no money to spend right now for a new lens or new equipment at all (I'm an Israeli soldier and we don't get paid a lot), maybe in the future.
Thank you for your comment!

I haven't tried shooting that way. The magnification is so cool, the focus point gives interesting details on the eye.
