I bought a Promaster 52mm Close Up +4, +2, +1 filter for my Nikon DX 18-55 mm. I love to take close up, but I can not afford a new lens, so this is the next best thing.

I think I've found the happy medium with my promaster macro filters. The +1 and +2 don't do anything too crazy to the image and definitely do not have the chroma (chromatic aberration) that the +4 will give you.

THEME = Flowers for Bruce! R.I.P.
The filter setup, up close. There are three filters here -- ND 4X (2 stops) by Promaster, B+W 110 ND 3.0 (10 stops!), and MaxMax CC1. Just the 10 stop filter was not enough -- not as much for shots but the viewfinder was just too bright; could be bad for the sensor as well. Unfortunately, 10 stop is the strongest I have and I don't think they are making a stronger one anymore. So I had to add the second ND even at the risk of extra internal reflections. In the end, it did work reasonably well. There are some mild internal reflections on some shots but those are within tolerances, I could easily remove them by adjusting global contrast in PP. The CC1 filter blocks both IR and UV passing only the visible light. It was serving multiple purposes here. ND filters are passing most of the IR freely. Even with the strong hot mirror of 7D it would cause severe image degradation. The second reason is safety -- the IR passed through those ND filters is still dangerous for the eyes and it's invisible making it much much worse. By placing CC1 I've made the setup reasonably safe to use for manual focusing. Most of the focusing was done in live view anyway, it appeared to be more convenient.
There are two adapter rings in this setup. Both NDs are 58mm but the CC1 came from my IR setup which is 52mm. Nothing special about those rings.
One side note about the CC1. The filter causes strong cyan cast, much like extra strong cooling filter. This is a well known behavior of this filter but it is easily correctable. I've adjusted color temperature in Capture One to make the sun yellow again.
Roger Friedman and I spent a few hours recording in the studio this morning. I took this while sound checking.

Glamorous insects this morning! Made me realize that I really don't know the names of many insects. :-/

Wallie belongs to friends of ours and we are watching him while they are on vacation. He is a Pug/Chihuahua mix. He is SO adorable and SO much better behaved than he was the last time we watched him! Ha! :-) Little boy's growin' up.

My brother, husband and I went into KC tonight after work and met Kelly and James in the Power and Light District to socialize and see Better Than Ezra perform a free show. It was a great time! I took a few pictures.

Mallow, my Uromastyx lizard, enjoying a fresh harvest of dandelions. She is a fun pet and an easy-to-keep reptile, because she is completely vegetarian and her favorite meal grows in the lawn! :-)

Alligator Alley is a really great place to see alligators and learn about their ways. I highly recommend it for anyone who has not been especially if you have young kids.
Harsh midday sunlight and infinity focus tests at f3.8 and f11 from Vulcan Park in Birmingham, Alabama. Please do not judge these photos for their photographic merit since these are just tests of a lens that most people would consider junk. These are handheld SOOC shots from an old manual focus Auto Promaster 85-210mm f3.8 FD mount adapted to a Sony a5000. All of these except two are either f3.8 or f11 (see shutter speeds).
At f3.8, softness is so severe that it becomes difficult to even see the focal point. Sharpness at f11 is much better, and I would say slightly better than I expected. True infinity focus seems unachievable, or at least on my setup, which is able to achieve infinity with know good lenses. It appears the distance from Vulcan Park and Childrens' Hospital is about the distance of "infinity".
No matter what, for near free, this lens is fun with three different ways to spin the lens (macro mode, focal length, and focus).
