macro filters

[CHROME77]

I thought id try out some of these macro filters. while they do seem tough to use sometimes you can get some jems. enjoy.

Great shots! What photo filters did you use?

+4 and +10 for the water droplet, and i think only the +10 macro filter for the caterpillar. 18-55mm kit lens.

Which brand of macrofilters did you use? I especially like the picture with the waterdrops!

 

[telephonic]

Yeah, I love the water droplets, too!

Have you considered using "extension tube" or things like that? I heard that for wider lens, it's better to use the tube rather than the filters (as it doesn't introduce more air-glass interface)

I use Kenko Close-Up +3 PRO1 D AC 77mm with 24-105 and 70-200 f4 (with a step-up ring). I spent more money for Kenko (and only for +3) because of AC - achromatic. The image is free of chromatic aberrations and, because of that, more sharp.

i used these which i got from amazon. I was surprised by the quality seeing how cheap they were. I actually ALMOST bought the tube instead. I may go ahead and order the tube versions anyways since they have them for like 10 bucks.

i really wish i had some L glass. then maybe these would be way nicer. still not bad for a kit lens
