Hello everyone. I'm new to this forum but I can add some insight about macro photography from my experiences. Bryan Peterson mention's the Canon 500D Close Up Lens (diopter) as a "poor man's macro" if attached to a telephoto lens. My poor man's macro is an older Nikon 80-200mm mounted on a Nikon D600 full frame. Good thing about this Canon diopter is that it does such a great job taking close up photography that you won't even know it's a diopter. That and it isn't camera body specific... it's available in different sizes to screw ontop of any of your telephoto lenses. My photography club shares a 77mm one... I'll be borrowing it this weekend and taking some shots of my tank. Hope this helps member's like me on a budget that can't afford a true macro lens but want good quality at an affordable price.
