they're build with different purpose in mind.

g88, never thought of reversing ring?

haha..yeah, 50mm reverse mount rocks

No la..need to buy reverse ring (dunno cost much oredi) and this one that one...

Have you try btw, sinister ??

Here's the last 3 photos

ask harry, he uses reverse ring.. isn't dat rite harry?

nola..me not full time macro shooter, just use cheapo Sigma tele to shoot.

but can see the result of norazumi reverse mount quite impressive.

Gadget_Freak is harry or you refering to harsher ?

me la.. h@rry's photography

how much u get the macro filter?

go out to shoot more, esp insect...i want to know the how much details it can capture and how close, if it is good, i may want to get this macro filter. but right now i got the 50mm f1.8 liao

It's only CLOSE Up not macro or super macro la..like that no one buy Tamron 90mm oredi hahaha....

got it for Rm45

how is ur macro filter looks like ? mind to share !? wher u get it ?

quite attractive !

any shop that selling filter will have. Look like ordinary filter but when you look through it..it act like a magnify glass....

buy the macro filter for 50mm lens or 18-55mm better leh?

i think better for 18-55 lens, coz u can play around with zoom range and can get closer to subject than 50mm can..

no doubt 18-55mm can get closer shoot compare to 50mm but remember prime lens always have better picture quality...kitlen can go down to F3.5 and 50mm is F1.8

here a 50mm reverse ring

Pls share gear that needed to do reverse ring...and well skill pls

Poison you for what, we dun even know your budget

err 50mm lens and d reverse ring... dats all..

At least you got money for a +4 Closeup

how much a reverse ring would cost >?

hi g88, mind to know wher u bought ur macro filter ??? coz i used to ask some shop, it cost about 100, so i din get it....... the price u get is vry attractive !

It's not a macro filter but a close-up filter. The price depends on the size. The bigger the size, the more expensive it is.

i mean the +4 size...... is it as mention by g88 ???RM45 !!?

free also can,

u juz remove ur 50mm lens and put it d opposite way.. den u can take macro picture immediately..

The +4 is not the size of the close-up filter but the close-up factor of the filter. The size is govern by the diameter of the filter, ie. 52mm, 55mm, 67mm, etc.

I asked before a 55mm +4 Hoya Close-up filter during a business trip in Singapore and was quoted SGD15, IIRC.

Around 3k , what do you guys think ?
400D is fairly cheap but that's the price for new one , looking for second hand dslr as i can invest more on equipment.

Come larh , I'm having comma , poison me if you can.

grats man 50mm lense is an awesome lense.very useful for low light environment.but the trick is do not depend on f1.8 too much, try play around with 2 - 2.8 u'll still get great results!

actually all prime lens are sharp copy since lesser element

g88 .. how much you bought your +4? What brand is it? June payday I wanna buy one play-play if not too expensive ...

Here's it.

it's proven ac98 sifu never read posting .....

Got it Rm45. Brand Hoya. If you have enough $$ u can get from +1 to +4 or upto +10 ....

The popular one is +1, +4, +10...what i heard to high "magnification" will cause your pic quality distorted...

I think too high magnification will have a very hard time controlling the DOF. Razor thin one some more.

Okay okay thanks ... how much would '+10' be? And mana beli?

yaya ~ i wan2 know mana beli tooOo

any camera shop that sell filter > especially those that pro in DSLR would have...+10 price i dunno ler.

HERE is a very useful link talk about Macro shooting

ok...let me 'rephrase' their question:

where did YOU buy ur +4 filter for RM45? we won't quote ur name, don't worry

Ahahah...go to Ampang Park 1st floor look for a booth name Leos Trading ( i think at least 10 years business there already).

Ask for the boss name Jeff, he is very very friendly.

Tell him u r recommended by a guy that bought Ixus 850IS from him 2 days ago...

g88 here is d difference between d lens

Thanks to this thread it really poisoned me to get a 50mm lens soon

buy buy buy.. it will ur best money spent ever..

this is a vry dangerous thread !~ but anywher the 50mm is really worth to buy ~

juz imagine taking pic of ur vios wit 50mm... it will be super sharp dat u'll have it for ur windows background... den u can view ur vios all day long..
