I love Laowa. Those crazy chinks are doing some really innovative stuff in macro photography.

True. The 15mm macro is wonderful.

I wasn't even aware of them; I don't really do much macro and don't even have a macro lens, but after seeing some samples from the 15mm I really want to pick one up. Seems like a really fun lens.

Same happened to me.
I was all about street and portrait, then my girlfriend gathered money from my relatives and friends and gave me a sigma 105 f2.8 1:1 macro.

Awesome for portrait, but holy crap macro is just so fun. Even the spiderweb at the corner of your room can look interesting.

That's a repurposed endoscopic lens, isn't it.

Probably. Cheap chink shit uses the same components as each other a lot.

I can already see this in some japanese porn where the guy takes photos from inside the girl's vagina.

Can't I just get a 1:1 macro for meme43 instead?

I've seen enough hentai to know where this is going.

That's pretty funny looking. It will be great for people who work in the field but not for the stuff I do. I really want that 15mm macro though.

I'm worried about how not robust that lens might be.

But it seems like a cool idea if it works.

Expensive way: ring flashes or sets or two strobes, diffused and/or bounced.

Cheap way: get yourself a shitload og LEDs with a colour temperature between 3000 and 3500 kelvin, connect them using paralel wiring and build yourself an illumination set with a plastic container.
Use AA rechargeable batteries for the power input.
