Cheap macro option
#1

Hi

When I got my first dslr in April 2011 I thought that I 'had' to have a macro lens to go with the two kit lenses. However, being a tight Scot, I wasn't keen to part with £370 for the Tamron 90mm f2.8 which was rated very highly by most reviewers at the time. I decided to 'splash out' on the Neewer 0.45X Wide Angle Lens with Macro for £19.99. I was impressed with the Macro part of the lens but not the wide angle part.
Here are the first shots with my Pentax k-r and kit 18-55mm lens with the Neewer macro lens attached.
   
   

The lens remained in its bag for over a year until a few weeks ago, when I acquired some model photographers. These shots are with my Pentax K-30 and kit 18-55mm WR lens with the Neewer macro lens attached.
   
   
   
I think the results are acceptable, especially for the price.
Anyone care to comment, agree or disagree?

Coachline.
