Step 6Put it all together
Screw the hose into the body cap and slide the lens into the hose.
If your tube is wonkey (it's not straight enough for your liking) try making a wider notch and/or sloping the edges of the notch to better fit the spiral.
When it all looks good, put the lens on the camera and point it at something in the distance and see whether it comes into focus with the lens pushed all the way in. If it's not in focus and moving the lens out doesn't fix it, your tube is too long. Cut off a few millimeters at a time and retry until until it's in focus.
Move the lens in for distant objects and out for close objects. For macro work, use a longer piece of hose and bend the hose around for the tilt function.
Set your dSLR to A or M and go take some photos....
