good pics birukaca21.
quite tempted to do it too. laugh.gif

anybody here can explain how exactly this reverse-lens technique works?
from the photos, it looks as though the aperture is very big.

If you are using a 50mm constant lens, its easier. Just reverse the lens, unlock the aperture and set it to the biggest aperture (on the lens) and then place it on your came and hold it. Then fire away wink.gif

Hmm I shall try that with a 50mm later on then. laugh.gif
thanks for the advice on that. biggrin.gif

But for the moment, by using kitlens, since can't set the aperture (assuming the zoom is at 18mm), by doing the reverse lens technique, will the aperture be bigger than F3.5 or not? that's what I'm curious about.
