Hi, I was admiring your photos taken w/ your magnifying filters.  I have a few questions, I have a set from polaroid, probably about the same magnif., did you stack them to get the max magnif.? Seems like af still works w/ 50mm lens, but not w/ 18-55mm.  Did you measure the distance to your focal point or does your camera tell you that?  I think they turned out very well for just testing out your filters.  I can't tell they were handheld.  With all of mine stacked, I can get about 1 inch (or so, maybe less) away from the subject.  It's like a whole new world down there.  I could have passed on the rotting meat (yuck).  You're lucky to catch that fly so close w/o flying off.  I have a real cool dragon fly in my yard that disappeared the day my 50mm lens got here (today)   Patience, right?  Thanks for sharing.  BL
