What does a reversed 50mm lens do? Making things look bigger. A.k.a macro, for you fancy word lovers. Never tried it before, so I thought I'd give it a shot. No, I don't have an adapter ring or anything. I just stick the reversed lens to the FM2 and held them together with my left hand, after setting the aperture to f/2. Focusing? I simply moved closer or further. Was quite surprised about what this cheap 50/1.8 can deliver... the sharpness is just wicked, if you don't shake. Not sure about how it affected metering, since I only made a mistake in a single frame (a bit overexposed), metering-wise. Judging from these results, as long as you shot stationary objects, the method proved to be nice.






Random friends shots.






And a couple frames from when we were fishing last week. Not exactly exciting, but still better than doing nothing home...



Also brought the digital with me. Mostly shot the nice looking clouds for stocks. ;p


There wouldn't be school until February 16th... got to find something to do... hmm.

Aku rasa semua foto kamu mestinya disubmit di dA
Keren semua!
Specially yang refleksi!
Btw, pernah baca di larafairie's jurnal tentang lensa yg dibalik bisa jadi lensa makro gitu
nanti coba ahhh!!
Heheh, nanti yg refleksi emang rencananya mau diupload di DA kok. Tapi kebanyakan foto² di blog ini emang nggak untuk diupload di lain tempat karena konsep awal blogku itu semacem 'online scrapbook' dimana aku bisa majang segala macem foto yg kusuka tanpa terlalu memusingkan masalah genre atau tetek bengek lainnya... anything basically goes here. :D
As for the macro... cobain aja, asal obyeknya nggak gerak cukup efektif kok. :)
