    Close Up Filters - The Results!

    Hi,

    Thought you might be interested in the results from my purchse of two close up filters after I asked you all for Macro photo advice the other week.

    I purchased a +4 and +2 from 7dayshop which were quite cheap so wasn't sure what to expect. I;ve been trying them out over the past week or so and these are some of the results:







    Theres some more in my gallery if you 're interested at all.

    I'm quite pleased with the results but using the close up filters does mean it is difficult to get quick shots as it takes a bit of time to find the correct distance to focus. Plus it helps a huge amount using a tripod and remote which I guess are must for macro phography.

    Thanks for all your advice the other week. I'm really loving taking close up pictures at the moment.

    Steve
