Instead of backing up files right away (I'll learn someday) I tried to rotate a few upon opening (did Start, Explore, Removable F drive)...and program froze...now saying when try to open images on CF Card , "card needs to be formatted". Any programs you've used and would recommend to recover them?
ANY help would sure be appreciated.
Signed, I know better!!
So Mr. Gessman...You are saying that the screw-on Macro filters will indeed help even on a macro lens?
Since I know nothing about extension tubes, what do they do differently and/or better than the filters--how do I go about chosing one? Brand? Size? Any further specific suggestions would sure be appreciated.
Dirtpusher-- Would be fun to see your fly pic. Also, I don't doubt they work, what I'm wondering are they overkill or at all effective on an existing MACRO lens?
My lens is a 24-105 L MACRO---
I really enjoy close up work and wondering if these Close Up filters (I'm looking at the B&W Brand) add anything to a Macro lens? I realize the Canon 24-105 zoom is not a 'true' macro--or so I'm told. Or are these filters designed to help only a non-macro lens?
Any experience with this? If so, should I buy a kit of them like the 2, 3 and 4 so I can stack or is say a 4 good enough?
Thanks for your time. Jeff

SOLD-- (Can one actually delete these postings?)
For all of you photographers out there looking for an awesome and very affordable lens---I am selling my Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 XR DiII (FOR CANON) -- This is the NON-IS version which continuously gets better reviews than the IS Version. I've attached the review from Fred Miranda---he loves this lens. Priced at $350---it is a great deal!! Send me a private note with any questions. Also a lot of the images I shot with this lens can be seen on my website--

BigD!! Thanks for the reply. Since I am a bargain guy---with all of the responses...B&W it is---I have a knack for finding barely used top of the line stuff @ good prices. Plenty of people out there selling stuff I want/need.
And there is NO reason for you to run and hide...lol. Appreciate you taking the time for a thoughtful response.
Warm Regards....Jeff
What is the overall purpose of your neutral density filter?
I was wondering what those step up rings were for...thanks
Was always wondering why this didn't exist--Thanks!!
I agree about not placing junk in front of my lens. Just wondering which brands to chose & which to avoid.
I am looking at adding some filters to my collection for my new Canon 24-105 Macro L ...Curious if you think any brand is truly superior to others? One certainly would think so when you compare the prices of the 77mm Close Up filters I've been looking at and their amazing price differences.
Any thoughts from you would be very much appreciated.

I bought it and love it. SUPER easy and does an amazing job. I will admit upon first using it, I tended to over do peoples faces. Basically making the 40 year old look 25. ;) I would highly recommend it.
James...thanks for the input. Really appreciate it. I'll check out the websites tonight.
Jeff
JW---great advice. I also just got a Canon 28-105 1:4 L IS...may use that. Truly apprec the tips.
