#Arkive JO: Cheaper Macro options

[jsaras]

I have $80 Oly macro converter, screwed on the lens like

42.5/1.7

45175 /4-5.6

or 1260/2.8-4.0 with step down ring

The result is great, and should give me nearly or close to 1:1 ratio..

I use the Olympus macro converter on my 25mm f1.8 and 45mm f1.8. The results are excellent. For as often as I photograph a bug or a flower I can’t imagine spending more for a dedicatee macro lens.
