I haven't tried this, but it looks interesting.

Guess no one is interested in DIY photography.

Not to many people still use SRL cameras. Unless you shelled out the big bucks for a SRL digital cam.

 

It's a cool concept.

 

thanks for sharing. :D

I in fact do have a digital SLR camera. They aren't that much more expensive than a really good regular digital camera, and you have a lot more flexibility with the SLR. I think I will try to make this over christmas so I don't have to shell out $300-800 bucks on a macro lens.

has anyone tried this here. the problem i would see would be the white balance. you might also need a ring flash or a detatchable slave. just some thoughts. it would seem to work with any camera though.
