I got my macro lenses in over the last couple of days. Got the DCR-150 and DCR-250. Both off of eBay from different sellers.I was going to order the CM-2000 bundle, but this way I saved a few dollars and have adapters for both lenses!
I've only tried the DCR-150 so far; the 250 is just a bit too powerful for now. I'll cut my teeth on the 150 and work my way up. :G Here are a few of my first attempts at macro photography. They've been through a bit of PP to bring out the details. I have to say so far, I'm very happy with this purchase. Man, you think you have a steady hand until you snap one of these things on your camera! Comments are welcome. The Fly... |

Great Start
the anole (lizard) with bent head is just perfect. Nice idea to use it as your avatar. Also the spider's portrait works a lot. Did you use the on-board flash ? |

Thanks for the nice comments, guys.
If I remember correctly, the shots of the anole lizard and the fly were shot using the onboard flash set at -2. The others were taken with a Sunpak 433 with a Stofen diffuser. Looking at them on my work computer, they seem a little blown out now. Don't know if it's this monitor or not. Jerry - I got one lens from an individual and the other from digital_bundle. |

Thanks Redstickman
Just ordered the DCR 150 from Digital_Bundle for $31.90 including shipping. Hope I can do as well as you starting out. Jerry |
