Uncle Leong, I have the 70 - 200 and some people buy this macro filter call Rayno and fix it to the lens.. I think. Will this be able to do ok macro with this lens and this filter? I mean to shoot macro flowers..

And is this filter expensive?

if shoot flowers with 70-200 just use buy extension tube will do.

even without it, this lens is good to shoot flower like waterlily or lotus.

Shot using 70-300mm

Foral photography is not really macro photography.

So need not always go very close.

I have tried using just the 70-200 to shoot flowers and I really like it. Oh ok, you call this the extension tube. Canon have this too?

All brands have it, there are many types... The more expensive one can communicate with your lens...

I only have the cheap ones... That one have to use manual settings... Basically what it does is to extend the distance between the mount of your lens and the body of camera... Therefore allowing you to place the lens much closer to the subject...

 

[Leong23]

Macro lens only good for shooting small flower or fungus.

Manita, if you are very bored at home, you can find CDs (hopefully those that don't contain any important data, and unused, so that it'd be clean - just look at the third photo, so dirty), get some water, and play with droplets on CD...

That's what I did last time in London when I was bloody bored and it was raining.. :bsmilie: But anyhow shoot one la.. So not sharp at all. :bsmilie:

So for my camera and lens, which one will be able to communicate ?

Yes!! this is what I am trying to say.. Shoot this type of fungus or mushroom... So can the lens and extension tube do this?

That one ask Leong... IIRC Kenko should have?

Kenko Extension Tube Set (12, 20 & 36mm Tubes) Review

If you see the picture looks like got the connection points, means should have communication.. But I don't know much about all these..

I just remembered, I think if you do not have many lenses with aperture ring you better get the type that can communicate... If not to avoid shooting wide open is super duper mar fun. :bsmilie:
