I was shooting on Nikon back when I was experimenting with macro, and the reversed lens I was using was a nifty fifty.
I think part of the reason I ended up getting more into landscape panoramas than macro was that the cost of entry for high-quality results was lower
Quit thinking that! He’ll hear you!!!
Hot damn ain’t technology great! I couldn’t afford the active extension tubes, I was too poor from buying vintage USSR lenses and ridiculous attachments.
Okay, but did he ever say anything abnormal?

That full body workout took me days to read the last time. I felt like I was watching an epic soap opera and was trying to track all the characters until I realized that they all just needed to hug and communicate better

Glad I frequently have a common answer
Extension tubes are pretty fun, but I didn’t like the light falloff and got annoyed with the manual focus when trying to photograph things that move a little bit such as living ants or the iris of people’s eyeballs. My very first intro to macro was reverse-lens photography where you simply use your lens backwards.
Eventually for macro without a macro lens, I settled on a stack of lens filter step up/step down adapters and one male-to-male filter adapter to reverse-mount my 50mm lens onto any other lens of choice. I also got a body mount to filter adapter so that I could protect the back glass with a UV filter and add a macro ring flash. This whole setup gives you at least a modicum of autofocus, which helps tremendously. Granted, you end up with some extreme fisheye and barreling around the edges of your image, which means you’ll lose some fidelity cropping out the garbage.
None of this is necessarily advise anyone should take, just offering you some more ideas to have fun with. Also, check out macro rack focus rigs, those are crazy-fun. This was also a pretty incredible story around the time I started really getting into macro, you might get some rig ideas with today’s more easily accessible technology.

Wow, that’s a great fucking read!
ZOMG! Hell has frozen over!

If they were using a polarizing filter on their lens, then the two targets would appear to have uniform brightness. What you’re seeing isn’t one target brighter than the other, it’s a glare from the sun reflecting off the paper. Look at the far right of the right target and you’ll see a similar brightness value.

I guess I’m the problem for locking in a good interest rate when they were low and not wanting to fuck myself over by moving.
Funny, I locked in a bad interest rate when they were high. I’d refinance, but I can only find “worse interest rates that are higher.”
Oh gosh, I’m not sure I could even sift my way through that much toxic masculinity and confidently-incorrect content to even derive a coherent tldr. I guess that everyone is wrong and this 16-year-old post now only serves as a mile marker on the unfortunate decline of online courtesy?
