I like to take close up pictures of flowers. My 18-35 mm lens set at 18 mm does this job just fine, but I was curious to see what these lenses would do. $7 lens set vs hundreds of dollars macro lens - it was worth a try.
I've uploaded a few pictures from my first go around. Focusing was a little tricky for me with my camera lens so I would say there is a learning curve. The end result is a shallow depth of field that really makes the flowers pop! I tried to take some pictures of some ants but they were too small to focus on.
Don't expect miracles with this lens as it acts like a magnifying glass in my opinion. It won't do what a a true macro lens will do, it shouldn't, it couldn't, but you'll get some nice images especially with the +10 lens.
