LF: 100mm Canon EF lens for coral close up or equv
Hi,
New to DSLR, I just got a T6S and would like a good lens for coral close up If someone have a EF/EF-S lens to sell please PM |
Macro Extension Rings
I went the cheap method.
Get a set of macro extension rings: http://www.amazon.ca/Mcoplus%C2%AE-E...acro+extension They reduce the focal length of any lens. Through an inexpensive 50mm f/1.8 on them and your laughing. Here's an example: http://i382.photobucket.com/albums/o...1.jpg~original |
How is the light with the extension tube?
How close can you get? I can use the stocks lens but I need a minimum of 8-12 inch away or it won't focus. I which they would make a "macro mode" like on compact camera, my Canon S90 can take picture less than 1 inch from subject. |
Tamron 90mm is an excellent lens. I got a lot of advice on macro lenses from food photographers and they recommended this lens.
It's a lot cheaper than the canon 100mm and equal in performance (other than the focal length) maybe better |

You can get less than an inch away there are typically 3 rings so you can use combinations to get the focal length you want. I have lens against the glass or hovering just above the water. Macro rings are a great inexpensive way to get into macro before you decide to go whole hog. |
