>>2640695Great way to do macro photography is by reversing the lens.
The cheap 18-55 kit lens is actually quite good for that.
You'll need a special reversal ring to mount the lens in reverse.
They are cheap.
To get even higher magnification you can add macro tubes.
They are also quite cheap.
With a set of macro tubes and a revered lens you can get much higher magnifications than with a so-called "macro" lens.
And at a fraction of the cost.
