Description

I bought a used Canon FD 50mm f1.8 lens for $30 and a pair of Cokin filter adaptors for $10 each to make the coupling ring. (The coupler is made by gluing the two adaptors together by their faceplates) Total cost about $55 with tax. This picture shows my macro rig set up to photograph the tiny diamond in my wedding ring. The actual image is coming up later.
