ok so the nikon 150 mm macro nikon lens is like 995 dollars. Anyone have any less expensive ideas? I want to experiment with macro Are there lenses I could use instead?
Canon makes a 500D close-up lens that screws on the front of your lens. This is not a set of three lenses. It is available in the $80 - $130 range depending on your lens size. Search out Bryan Peterson on YouTube to see an example of this lens.
I'm Jim from Marinette, WI. I have learned much by reading the posts here for the last few months. I've been studying to become an amateur for a little more than 40 years. I took the digital plunge big time in February 2009 with the purchase of a D300. Images I've taken have been seen by my family and a few friends. It's long overdue for me to see what other people think. Hopefully I've attached some recent photos.
