   The adapters are being used on a Canon T3i in order to take pictures and record video up close with a 50mm 1.4 lens. I also used the stock lens that came with the T3i once. The quality that you get for the amount you pay for these filters is amazing. The first down side is that you need a lot of light because you have to open the aperture up very wide in order to get the shot in focus or there will only be a very very small part of the shot in focus which is not what I was after. (some buyers are) After setting up studio lights or on a bright day outside everything was great. The filters allow you to move your camera closer so a moving object like insects are out of the question. Don’t worry, it is the cheapest way I found to enter into micro photography without spending a couple hundred on a lens an if you don’t like it (micro) you lost under $20 bucks. Thats a trip to a local fast food store. The shipping was also slow but other than that I really enjoyed them.

   I have been using a Raynox DCR-250 macro lens adapter, which is rated as +8 diopter. I used that lens with a super zoom and the results were extreme, the only problem was the horrible depth of field. It took me a lot of patience and practicing to learn how to deal with it. It basically comes to isolating your rig from vibration, using a focusing rack and not relying on just the on board flash.After a month or so playing with it I got to the point that I could produce consistent results. Then I sold my superzoom and got a DSLR. During the post-new-camera-accessories-buying-frenzy I picked up this set of macro filters. The price is really good, less than 1/4 of what I paid for my DCR-250, for a combined + 17 diopter v. the Raynox’s +8. And I could just screw these onto my lenses instead of having to use an adapter like with the Raynox (my superzoom didn’t have filter threads).Please note that I am not a pro, I am just a hobbyist. And I was able to immediately take decent shots with nothing more than the four macro filters combined and either my Nikon 35mm f/1.8 DX or my 18-55mm VR kit lens. I even went as far as adding the Raynox to the four filters and managed to get some interesting results, and that was just hand held.The filters came in a folding purse with pockets for each one, which is pretty adequate for the price. I am sure there are better products out there, but for the tiny amount I paid for these I am extremely pleased. I simply didn’t expect them to work so well.Warning: don’t expect to be able to use these at maximum stacking if you have never shot macro before. It really takes a lot of patience and experimentation.

   I’m a learner photographer, experimenting with different types of lenses and filters. My dream was to own a macro lens, but the prices were too steep for me at this stage. A friend recommended I try layering filters, and so I looked into it and found these! I have to say, I am pretty impressed with the pictures I’ve been taking with them. They may not be professional quality, but they look damn fine! I am very happy with my purchase and I’m loving the effects I’m getting with them. They may not compare highly to an expensive macro, but for my purposes and level of skill, these are perfect.
