Magnifying glasses work fine, thats all a macro filter is, except you don't have to hold these in front of your lenses!

Hi guys,

Nice photos Dustin! I'm hoping to get a new camera soon so I can get better pics.

Thanks for sharing those.

Great job.

Hi Suzzane, you can still use an old camera, just add on some good macro lenses. I mean, my camera is brand new, but still an old Digi would give you the same results, macro lenses operate on the camera ability to zoom optically to the telephoto position, not on the megapixels present, but more MP gives you more clarity, and a macro function on the camera certainly helps a WHOLE lot when using the lenses.

[TheAlphaWolf]

cool! I really need a bical :-/

 

[TunaSurprise]

Your bical is a fraction of it's total size, but don't dispair, mine is a lot smaller! Your's could eat one of mine's pitchers.
