[bonzo_catalin]

Lol , i thought it is just a simple name MACRO . Sorry

Ok , than macro so be it .

[Magnj]

certainly closer lol <3

[Magnj]

could have sworn I had contributed some. All of these are 1:1 or better

[Vapor]

bonzo...right edge of the rose there's a ton of artifacts, how much did you sharpen (?) that?

Nice pics magnj

[bonzo_catalin]

Sorry , it was my bro hwo did the modification

[Vapor]

I like the pic...but if you clean up the sharpening artifacts, it could be pretty sweet.

(though still not quite 'macro')

macro?
its really hard to get proper lighting when the subject is touching the objective on camera...
real size, only cropped

Macro shots require the proper lens. The circuit board I posted was approximately 8" from the lens. Actual picture is much larger then real life.

yup, but this is the "poor mans" macro lol... i had no $1500 for proper dSLR so i bought this compact Fuji S5800 10x zoom for $290, im quite happy with it. Its my first real cam lol. im Just being used to photography

[Magnj]

DSLR's are not THAT expensive. Pentax k100d+kit lens+old 50mm lens mounted backward can produce 1:1 shots for what 500$? Still not cheap but not crazy.

finally got a macro lens for my 20D...the cheapest poorly built macro on the face of the earth but for the $100 it cost me, it is definitely worth it. tack sharp and almost true 1:1 without dropping a fortune is always nice. now if i just had the eyes to properly focus when in this tight





naturally the first subject is going to be a motherboard vmod...i am going to have to make my soldering look pretty now that i can get decent photos, and clean up the random hairs

and one last one i just grabbed...changing out CPUs so it seemed only natural to get one of the E6850:

[Prof Dr Silver]

Wow....those are some sweet shots, TiN EOF!

[ThatGuy16]

Here are couple i took messing around with my camera











Taken with a Fujifilm S700

I took those on auto with stablization / macro

Im too noobish to know anything about the manual settings on this thing

[Magnj]

Nice shots! You have yourself a nice collection of dust though, might wanna check out pec-pads and some cleaning solution.

Eew, I hope you killed them after you took their pics!

[TiN_]

Soviet old lens Jupiter-21M (200mm, F4) with reverse D50kit (18-55) at 18mm
Result :



All photos are not cropped, just a resize
Maximal close shots from 18-55 only




Macro (approx 12:1) from red rectangle parts





For my opinion - it cool for 30$ lenses

All shots are on 20 second exposure with external shutter
