Loving your chanel. I'm just starting out with macro photography and your videos will give me a boost like no other. Thank you so much for these! I have a question though.. I see you are using the D5600? I got the older brother D5500. My question is: Is there any way to keep the aperture from closing down when disconnecting the lens? I have several lenses (including the 40mm F2.8) - most of the time however I need to get extremely close to the subject in order to get in there. I bought some extension tubes (without automation).. This keeps me locked at maximum aperture.. What would you recommend in that case?

@Adaptalux 5 жыл бұрын

Hi Lukasz, depending on how old your lens is, there may be a little pin on the connection surface that you would be able to strap down when off the camera that will give you control over the aperture still. I flipped a lens in the moss video and it might work with your lens setup too.

I agree about moss, it's very surprising what's down in there when you get close up. The other week, light was fading and I took a couple of macro shots of a clump on top of a fence beside a nature pond, also on the fence was a patch of yellow and white, not sure, maybe a fungi? That's also very interesting close up. I'm sure you'll know what I mean. I'll do it again but closer next time and see just how close I can get, using Nikon D3200 + Sigma 105mm F2.8 EX DG OS HSM Macro. My first view on your channel, nice ideas thankyou. Subscribed 👽

Hey, we used several different lenses, check out each video for the specific setup we used. There are lots of setups that will get closer and wider shots, check out the moss video where we reversed a lens like yours to make it a macro lens.

@noyb154 4 жыл бұрын

the problem with these abstract geometric subjects, like bubbles and ferrofluid, is that you can't really differentiate between CGI and reality, so the viewer who doesn't know how the image was created, is usually not as impressed as you are since these images are all over media already. it's better to try to integrate bubbles with more naturalistic forms.

@Adaptalux 4 жыл бұрын

A lot of joy can be derived from creating something yourself and exploring your own creativity through a medium like photography. It's not always about creating something to impress other people or even doing something unique and groundbreaking. Sometimes it's more about your own journey, learning, experimenting and pushing your own boundaries... or just having fun with a camera and some bubbles to see what happens.
