yeah great camera/great pics, but im not/wont be getting one untill about next year hopefully i can get it then anyway. but i dont even know how to load pics up on-to the computer and that so...... when/if/know how to load up pics, i guarente i will post loads up with my ants and there set-up and that,but till then i will not be doing it. this makes me even more jelous lol,u lot all braging bout your classy cameras :cry:
nice pictures you have got there CapitalO. ;)
Thanks for the comments everybody!
ant dude: I didn't use a very classy camera ;) The A75 is a cheap consumer compact digital camera and you can pick up a similar 35mm lens for practically nothing.
@capitalo: really, and the pics look fine so..... any idea what the price range is for them sort of cameras? give or take i mean answer like this please from: 25£ to 75£...... thanks :D
The camera I'm using (Canon Powershot A75) retailed for about $200 (~£100) when it was released 3 or so years ago. The 35mm lens was off an oldschool pentax camera from the mid 80's. Check this link for a similar setup to the one I was using (I didn't use the adapter or a slave flash): http://megaweb.clubsnap.org/articles/a70_reversed_35mmf2/
thats still quite a bit for me, but maybe ill get camera next year for x mas or somthing as this year im getting basins and more colonies and that so ill have to wait ol well. anyway thanks---->by the way i dont really know anything bout cameras,apart from they can take gr8te pics and that lol :P
Capital Im gonna try the same thing on my Canon S1 LS.. And compare it to pics taken with a macro lens.. should be interesting ;)
I'm looking forward to see some results. :D
I have a canon S3 that I use this technique with, the depth of focus seems to be a bit less than with cameras with smaller lens' (like the canon a70). Ive done a bit of experimenting with this, and it seems that the larger the reverse slr lens (relative to the digi cam's lens) the larger the depth of focus. None the less, Ive taken some great pics with my canon s3 using this technique. I look forward to seeing your results :).
Been looking into this for ways to turn my nu cam into a great macro system, combing a 66mm extention tube > reversing ring > 55mm lens...will produce upto 2.7x magnification! :D ie the Ants will be nearly 3 times bigger in the picture than in real life...or somthing like that, much cheaper than spending 300€-11k€ on a macro lens
an Auto extention tube for Pentax is 129£ (€200) and a reversing ring is €20, although I will be gettin a manual extention tube, because manual imo is better for macro shots ;) and they are about €20....so in total, €40! :D
