Ghetto Macro Lens

Step 5What it should look like and how to focus

What it should look like and how to focus
This is what the Ghetto Macro Lens looks like when attached to a camera. You need to ve VERY close to your subject because of the tight depth of focus (DoF).

You will have to have good lighting and move in and out from your subject until you can focus. There is no focus except for the "in and out" method.

For the camera settingsI have the aperture set to 4.5 and the exposure to 30/100 with an ISO of 1600. The next picture is exactly what you see this picture taking.

DoF = depth of field, depth of focus is different and concerns the back of the lens
