Well, after having a 'serious' go at Macro photos today, I have a new found respect for all those Macro photographers out there!

These were the best of the lot.

what lens did you use?

Holliday · 16 Nov 2007 at 15:39

My nifty fifty with a MSN-202, 'tis the only lens I have at the moment

I like no.2 the blue/black tinge makes it look quite good.

Is the 202 a screw in filter or a type of extension tube?

I really like these, superb magnification. It's incredible how rough the surface of that 50p looks!

I'll see your 50p and raise you two quid.

Uncropped.

Didn't use flash. Instead, I used a halogen desklamp to the right and some coloured card above, below and to the left, to reflect some colour on the silver metal.

Exif embedded but it doesn't tell you that the MP-E 65mm was right out at 5x.
