That's an extremely tight budget for a macro lens...mandom said:
Still, you could try getting a 50mm f/1.8 at SG$170 + a Nikon BR-2A reverseing ring at SG$30. Or the same lense + a closeup filter for about the same price.
The other alternative, if you still want a lens is to look for secondhand Nikon or Sigma macro lenses.

can try K-13 @ peninsula plaza. They clearing stocks of tokina 100mm f3.5 macro lens at $268.
its a 1:2 macro lens but comes with an adapter for you to shoot at 1:1. Comes with 1 yr warranty if im not wrong...

Wow, there is a glass around $200 region, thanks for sharing :thumbsup: I thought the 50mm + BR-2A would have been the only solution :sweat:scandisk said:
Get a 2nd hand canon 500D maybe can do it. :dunno:

What about the Sigma 70-300 with Macro function? I believe its over the $200 budget though and around $300 IIRC

cheap macro lense? must be me!
[but are you asking dp or me?? hehe]
anyway i am testing a lot of achromatic filters, lense and combination against cheap lense like 18-70mm 55-200mm and 50mm
18-70mm $300
55-200mm $220
50mm $150
T6 i got free [or is it 6T? i always forget] no more selling?
then the rest of achromatic lenses are beg/borrow/steal from other hobbyist... some are oylmpus, some are leica... ... they host macro events then they advise me what to use... then they learn me to test test hehehe
i think there is a hoya 5x around $100
you can try 50mm with a combination...
