I would like to be able to get at least 1.5:1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Never had any say Panda I <3 Floods Silver Donating Members 11,198 Member For: 13y 1m 19d Gender: Male Location: South West QLD Posted 04/06/12 09:42 PM Share Posted 04/06/12 09:42 PM I bought a canon 50mm lens which was 2:1 then went and bought an extender for it (which costs almost the same as the lens) all up setting me back about 550.. Unfortunately I haven't had a chance to play with it much recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a good buy... http://www.the-digital-picture.com/Reviews/Canon-EF-100mm-f-2.8-USM-Macro-Lens-Review.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
