Re: Macro Photography Possible with Kit Lenses 18-55mm

Get a reverse lens adaptor and you can get really fun macro shots with extremely small DoF. They're really cheap but you'll lose aperture control and AF.

What I did when I wanted to play with macro is get a reverse lens adaptor and an old FD lens so that I could still have aperture control. I also have a macro lens but reverse lens macro gets you higher magnification.
