Macros: Close up filters vs Extension tubes?
#1

Hey I've been trying to scour the web for the difference between close up filters and extension tubes.. without much success. Anyone can help out here? Pros and cons? Oh, and what about reversed lens mounts?

I found some gems by the way, during my search, so all is not lost.

- Check out this guy's lighting rig using the built in flash! Ingenious! Photos are awesome too.

- Pretty cool looking diffuser, again using the built in flash
