    Tube practise

    Loupey should be a salesman for Kenko

    I've been messing around trying out the extension tubes (they are a lot of fun ), I even started building a table top studio today for macro's... which I used for this first image.



    I took this one a few days ago...



    And one I took just for the fun of it (nephews toy car)

    LOL, Copy!

    Now all you need is a barn jacket with oversized pockets to put your 2x TC and tubes and you're all set to go treking!

    Nice job BTW.

    Glad it was helpful. You know, I did do the whole "must have a specific lens for every specific situation" bit a while back. I think my then-girlfriend/future wife must have thought I was a lens collector

    Found out the expensive way that a lens used beats an under utilized lens collection everytime.

    As you can guess, I hang out at my local camera shop quite often. I just smile when I overhear customers and dealers talking about that "must have" macro lens. But I must say that my salesman has been doing a darn good job putting a 30D attached with a 180mm macro in my hands every time
