#14811 Should I go for the 35mm f/1.8G

Posted by Nasseh on 31 January 2014 - 08:08 AM

Thanks to all for your guidance,

Finally, I bought the 35mm f1.8g DX. I waited for the FX version but it was 3 times more expensive than DX one. Since I thought I can't make it to buy a full frame in near future, I decided to buy the DX version at the moment. To me, it's a very good walk-around lens. It's sharpness and quality are quiet satisfying. 




#14647 Focus bracketing

Posted by Nasseh on 30 January 2014 - 06:42 AM

Extension tubes steal light, cheap close-up lenses distort and good close-up lenses can cost as much as a used macro lens.

We have a member who likes his close-up lenses with a 18-55 kit lens. His latest post is here.

 

Hi Macro_61,

 

You are right, but if you manage it to have sufficient light, extension tubes are fine. undoubtedly, using a Macro lens is far better but I think extension tubes can be a cheap alternative.  I own a kenko extension tube set and they are just fine. this is a sample photo of a very tiny ant using those extension tubes. ( I didn't know focus bracketing that time so, the DOF is very shallow). I try to do a better job using this technique.

 

good luck
