Can SOmeone Loan me a Macro Lens?

[iamasaint]

Hi!

Can any kind soul lend me a macro lens (Canon EF mount) for a day or two. Actually, i need it to shoot my orchid which has bloomed. It is a slipper orchid and its pretty rare. I am very surprised to begin with that it has bloomed so I would like to document this momentous occassion. You are welcome to shoot with me if you wish! hahaha...please pm. Thanks.

Kelv, don't you have an 50 or 85? Try doing reversal? Would save you the effort of rushing to loan one and capture the moment now!

Interesting .. if you are satisfied with a 50mm macro, then PM me your contact to arrange

Hi you can refer to our resident expert, Megaweb

See his setup here http://forums.clubsnap.org/showthrea...181#post933181

However, the image quality is still the best from a true macro lens esp if you are using the ring flash
