Another DIY Micro-Macro Lens

Step 4Try Out the Fit

Try Out the Fit
Put your telescope eyepiece in backwards. That is, the glass part that would normally be close to your eye will now be facing out from the camera.

Lesson for the day: If you hold any camera or telescope lens backward and in front of your camera's lens, you will create a de facto Macro lens. I like to try every lens that I come across in front of every camera I own to test various configurations.

There is enough play that you can adjust the angle of the eyepiece a small amount to square it to the camera's lens.
