Budget Macro
6 months ago

Some macro shots I took with my Fuji s100fs over the past year or so, first 6 were all taken hand held with the Fuji + a Raynox dcr 150, last 2 were taken just using macro mode on the camera.

Total Macro set up cost me £170 (camera ebay) + £20 (Raynox DCR 150) = £190

Just spent 3x this on an NEX5R so hoping for much better results with that, and looking to get some dedicated macro lenses or vintage primes with ext tubes. Will also be trying the Raynox on the sony to see how it does. Can't wait till the summer to try and capture some clearer shots of jumping spiders like the 2 above, the nex's focus peaking should make this easier.

Still pretty new to this and always looking to improve so feedback always greatly appreciated.
