anyone here done a lens reversal macro shot?
well i tried it with my pentax 50mm f1.4. with lens hood on i just reverse the lens on teh camera and held it in place with 2 rubber bands
the pictures show are of a little mantis i found indoors. the lighting is poor so the exposure is long (hence the noise)
first pic: full frame reduced for the web
second pic: 800x600 crop of full frame (ie 100% size crop) this is wher noise shows the most
third pic: a 50% crop of another pic resized for the web.
it was quite an interesting experiment and i think a deeper dof would have helped. alas the lighting wouldnt have handled it.
any comments or questions welcome
