gem2nikiCamera nerding time! So recently I've been annoyed by how my photos turn out blurry because of low lighting. I ended up buying some photography lighting to produce better photos in a well lit environment in my poorly lit room).
I even made a light box set up.
However, when I try to take pictures of my figures, they end up blurry at a close distance because I don't have macro lens. Macro lens are too expensive for me for a hobby, so I ended researching about macro lens on youtube and found out about extension tube! I ordered one off amazon and got to play with it tonight. Long lens (80-300mm) work much better with it than my 20mm XD
You can use one or both.
How my figure photos normally turn out with my normal lens. All blurrrryyyy until I have to back further away.
WITH EXTENSION TUBE
Super close!! You can see the dust XD;;
I really wouldn't never get this close without cropping. Also playing with lighting.
Paint details!!

This was fun! I'll mess with my new extensions more later~
