Just add 10 extension tubes and your macro level will be over 9000. :)
FlippinSweet TV lolll
And your focus range would be below 0mm...
@@KanalMcLP so what you're saying is that I can take pictures of things behind the camera!??11?!
You'd need pure lighting to have a decent exposure.

2:34 am. haven't started my homework, know pretty much nothing about cameras. why am I watching this? I have no fucking clue, but I enjoyed it
John Lofton exactly
+Finn Guthrie literally fucking same
Hahaha my life
You are mastering the art of procrastination and if you don't control it you will end up with a fucked up life.
John Lofton , when i saw your comment , the time here was 2:34 pm 🤤. And I haven't started studying for my finals XD.
Shorten the focal length, you can increase magnification more
I just started experimenting with using my Tamron Macro Lens with a Tamron 2X Teleconverter, and so far have been getting some very impressive results. What's nice about using a Macro Lens with a 2X teleconverter is you get increased magnification WITHOUT having to get closer to a subject. I'm going to try and use that combo photographing insects one of these days, and will keep you folks posted.
I see that as potentially a great way to photograph insects because if you can photograph insects WITHOUT having to get ultra close to them, you have a better chance of getting your photograph, because if you can keep a good distance away from the insect you have less of a risk of scaring the creature off.
Extension tubes are available with the electrical connections through to the lense are available for not to much money and the ones I have work well. Saves risking screwing up the body and lense.
So true.. better save money for automatic extension tubes..
Well I never!! I use this very technique in my macro photography. I'm unsure about about the magnification ratio, but with just the adaptors (no extension tubes) my 28-80mm lens is extended by approximately 1 cm, and gives me 1:1 magnification.
Using two set of tubes is completely mad! I've not managed to capture an insect yet, but using a tabletop studio, I acheived some very impressive results! I also use a reverse mount ring and a macro diopter, which screws to the front of the lens.
I've done the 'tissue' shot, and I can see every single fibre! I have a virtual microscope! I can't wait for set #3 to arrive! Jeeezzz!!
Everyone commenting about the fact he is asian, like he's a rare mystical creature.

EVA Landry no it's because he used a calculator
this is so awesome watching this in 2020 and its more relavent today. you are way ahead of the curve buddy, meaning youre a real genius
Even if you didn't rehearse, your presentation was well thought out, clearly presented which is delightful, and enlightening. As an Instructional Designer and Technologist, from the University of Florida, I applaud your production. The use of high end, photographic gear in a dormitory room s impressive, and it fun. I love your sense of learning by exploring. Full marks. AAA+++
is it true you left digital rev?
Chris Wilson this is not kai lol
Emanuel Caesar 38 other people realised it was a joke.
It's just not the same without him :(
e_fire He has his own channel 😌
Its been hard for him, he went from 1dx mark ii to a 70d and he also lost his British accent.
use the f22 to get more dof. u need a bright flashlight to compose, and move ur camera forward and backward to focus. extension tube will make u loss some light, flash needed.
Malaysia has a 'Stinking corpse lily' on its bill?!?!... seriously, thats the best!
with the kit lens 18-55mm and a reversing ring you can get around 5:1 at 18mm. using a ultra wide lense like 10 or 11mm you will get around 7-8:1. you can go even further with using ultra wide lense + reversing ring + extension tubes. 10:1 should be no problem. maybe you can give it a try and make a video.
just stumbled upon this video. incredibly impressed with the overall quality and knowledge passed along, keep it up
Add more extension tubes and you will see atoms....
why am I watching this I don't even own a camera and I sat through the whole thing
Same
Future investments? 😅
Me 2
Me 2 bro
😂😂😂✌✌
Thyank you very much for the F stop lock trick! It's very-very useful for my reverse ring. :)
Glad it helped :)
With tube, lens will be closer to subject so definitely it will give u for magnified photo.
Reversing the lens would do too (even better in some aspects if you ask me). Kenko's tubes do have contacts. I don't use ET much right now since i got the Vello Macrofier. With ETs, sometimes getting things in focus is pretty hard (and theoretically, the focusing point is sometimes behind the lens' front).
Magnification, magnification and magnification!
You are so adorable in your detailed explanation. I love it! Thanks for the putting a smile on my face.
OMG I CAN SEE THE ATOMS
Magnification is the ratio of focal distances therefore if you use a shorter focal length lens you will get more magnification out of the extension. That macro lens looks like a 100mm but if you put a standard or wide angle on it the magnification will be more.
Inches? What are you talking about?
he uses imperial for american peasants to understand.
For the old school people to understand
lol
@Hydra Jamm r/woooshhhh
When you use manual extension tubes, Fstop will show infitinty!! So automatic extension is recommended.
I though you used the metric system on Malaysia
They do.
Just because he measured in inches doesn't mean it's imperial system, kinda like how you can measure an Asian in centimeters or in inches, ev
En though they use the metric
yes, we use metric system however during british colonial period, they used inches and etc. so the older generations prefer to use inches rather than meter, and because they learnt in inches too
When I use extension tube, I would also attach a reverse wide angle lens for up to 5:1 to 9:1 magnification. Lens with focal length longer than 80mm might not be suitable for adding extension tube due to difficult in hand held shooting.
Correct me if I'm wrong as I'm new to the photography game but as far as I'm aware extension tubes don't give you any X magnification, only draw the lens away from the camera to allow you to shorten the minimum focusing distance although it gives a similar effect.
My friend and I did this with a Pringles tube, a body cap and a regular telephoto lens. We took photos of a few things, but the best was a ball point pen, which blew up to about the size of a large beach ball.
The Canon MP-E 65mm f/2.8 1-5X Macro Lens is around $1,049.00.
i have the 65mm 5x macro which is a lot of fun. I frequently use it with extension tubes to get even closer.
Is that the best micro lens for Nikon...by best I mean highest magnification for rhe money. I'm sure I one can pay 20k for an insane one but for us non rich guys. My limit is 3k lol.
The Canon MP-E 65mm goes up to 5x on a full frame body. Can be used with a 2x teleconverter to make it a 10x. Then if you use the lens and teleconverter on a cropped sensor body it has a magnification of 16x. Very dark viewfinder and almost no depth of field even stopped right down. Canon refer to the lens as a micro lens as opposed to a macro lens.
Now that can see all these small details he susccesfuly counterfeited his own Malaysian money.
Jig Everything see him measuring it . . . thats him preparing sizes for the counterfeit money
he will probably use tissue paper too
@@djamil3 That aged well
8:25 are we seeing the dirt (black dot/mark) of the lens too? 😅
Thats the first thing I was gonna comment too 😀😀😀.
Having extension tubes magnify dirt on your lens/sensor a lot so you really have to clean your gear before taking macro photos
Well done buddy. As a Malaysian, I'm proud to see such production on photography of my fellow countryman. Keep up these superb clips. You've just added another subscriber
Aperture don't work that way. If you unscrew the sense they always go back to default which is the highest F stop. Pressing the button and unscrewing it doesn't change anything. The spring is in the lens
you can tell he's asian because he's good at math
and asian.
It's probably the eyes
That makes asians good at math?
tigerman1978 their brains duh??
A real asian would have done the math without calculator.
You said "Canon 100mm F2.8 L Macro Lens" so fast that I didn't understand it the first few times. Would you mind putting that in the description so it's easier to find?
Just what I was looking for (the aperture trick at 3:00), thanks! I HATE that these new lenses do not have a manual aperture ring...
I bought the cheap kind of extenders as well, without considering this technicality...
afrangov Now you got it covered :)
Have you tried to use a laser pointer lense infront of a mobile camera?
The magnification is way more than you have now, it's simple and cheap but sure not the same quality.
I shot the laser wire thread while it's led was working like 20%
The photo was incredibly astonishing.
The focusing is way easier as your lens will be like a point, you won't need flash light. Only directed led points on your subject like 1 CM ONLY.
Well guess I’m currently shooting double extension tubes and reverse ring ! I’ll be checking photos on post soon !
You can have a whole lot bigger magnification with less money if you just use one extension tube, a reversal ring and a kit lens at18mm focused on the closest point. I'm talking about 4-5 times magnification here...
Very cool video. Wanted to start making macro photos, and came upon your video. Gonna be fun making nice photos of insects, etc.
another grate video i do love extention tubes i like the canon tubes because of the closing down issue makes it so hard to focus in the dark i dontknow how he manages to get anything in focus he is good but to get the best results when taking macro photos i try to keep my camera body level and strait pointing at the bank note to get max depth of field he should have lowered his tripod so that the lens was not pointing down and capturing the bank note at an angle.
Great video. I just got a 100mm L, and usually use it with a 2x Kenko teleconverter for 2:1 magnification. I still have Kenko extension tubes from before I had a dedicated macro lens, and I think I may have to try it all together tonight.
If you are using a 70D you were starting off with more than 1:1 magnification from the start due to the crop-factor.
Is the 22.5 denominator always used to determine the amount of magnification? I had a customer asking me what the magnification was and I couldn't give an accurate response. Great trick getting the aperture to stay put, this is one benefit of using a manual lens for macro photography that most don't consider. thanks great video!
Bob Jimenez The magnification is calculated using the ratio of the size of the actual item to the sizer of the image formed on the sensor. In this case, I shot a ruler and observed the length of the ruler needed to completely fill the frame, then calculated the ratio of that to the actual sensor length.
***** I tried taking a shot of a ruler with a Nikon D7000 and a 60mm 1:1 macro lens at close focus but not exactly the closest focus possible. The length of ruler in the picture was the published width of the camera sensor
Bob Jimenez Because it's a 1:1 (a.k.a. 1x) lens.
+Blissfull ^^
Is he Kai Wong's brother??? lol
I wish!
I have to admit that they have a similar accent.
Thanks for the effort to put this video and explaining in the most simplisctic manner how to use macro lens with extension tubes. You are very good. Thanks again
Since when does Malaysia use inches?
Aleksandr Nestrato i was wondering that too
Aleksandr Nestrato he does that cuz he thinks were not malaysian.... i think
Aleksandr Nestrato for some reason I feel like he's making dick joke
We asians use both
Centimeters and inches
His video is in RUclips and RUclips is not for ONLY Malaysia ...
If you use a close-up lens together with 2 extension tube, you will have more magnification? like a microscope perhaps?
Give a lot of input and motivation about the photography of Trimakasikasi
His math skillz are next level asian 7:34
John doe calculator...
Kermit the Frog He is the calculator...
Meanwhile canon has the MP-E 65mm which has an incredible magnification of 5x. Still waiting for Nikon to release something like this...
He talks about this lens at 8:35 ...
You should look at an Olympus TG4 with the microscope setting and the light ring. It can see the fibers as well and everything fits in your pocket. Not quite as "professional" of a setup, but it gets magnification in a very small form factor.
might i humbly reccomend a 58/52 male/male threaded lens adapter ring an efs 55-250 and a nifty 50 1.8 and save a whole lot of time for more magnification 😉
or as i noticed a 200 prime and ef 50 1.8 and same style adaptor ring and same face to face method
For anyone watching in 2020:
The Laowa 25mm f/2.8 ultra macro lens can go up to 5X magnification on its own and is also considerably more wieldy than using extension tubes, bellows or lenses.
When it comes to magnification you tend to see a point of diminishing returns (2X compared to 1X makes much more sense compared to 4X vs 2X), and thus the Laowa 100mm f/2.8 2:1 lens is a good all-round lens for macro.
extension tubes with contact pass thru are super cheap.....saves you from doing the locking the aperture
Great video, nice to see someone who knows and loves what they do.
Great video. Thinking outside of the box with the aperture trick...love it!
Please do the same with macro filters and compare which is best among filter and tube.
Using the microscope mode of my little Olympus TG4 I can fill the frame with about 2½ mm.
It will even do in-camera focus stacking.
What if you open the shutter for a bit longer?
Nice you explained quite clearly, thank you. Most of the videos I saw don't take into consideration scaling and magnification.
Malaysian Kai, I support you.
nice video,,,be aware though removing the lens like that may damage lens' VR system if the VR is on...so i recommend to turn VR off before you do that DOF preview button trick....
depth of field preview button - never heard of it. Does the canon 650 have one of those?
Yes, its the button below the big button you press to remove the lens beside the lens mount. When you press it it shows you the depth of field you are using in the viewfinder or the screen if you are in live view mode.
Cheers. That will teach me to read the instruction manual.
You should of done the tip of a ball point pen
Iv'e got a 2x canon magnifier, 3 extension tubes, a 100mm f2.8 Canon, with a reversed 28mm f/1.9 on that. It's a beast. DOF is death. I did the math one day and I figured i was getting around 11-12x magnification
You should Try Reverse Ring Macro just using 18-55mm kit lens. It is Unbeatable to anything.
Quality suffer because through another lens again
my question is: is it best to have the focus ring at or near the infinity end? or does image quality not matter, and you can focus anywhere available, as long as you are in focus.
this was super cool, I was wondering if stacking several tubes would work and RUclips read my thoughts and recommend this a few hours later!
Will a 2x magnifying glass in front of the camera lens will produce the similar result?
At 2:49 you say "I will lose autofocus..." Actually, that does not matter.
When doing macro photography, move the whole camera or subject in order to focus.
It's only when you are using extreme magnification macro lens
And worse, since the EF lens aperture control is electronic, you can't adjust the aperture on camera when that extension ring is attached (there's a macro extension ring with a electronic contact, however...)
My friend... I had the mp-e65 with 50mm extension tube PLUS two extension tubes.. you wouldn't get how much magnification it was able to get!!!
Bro I get 3x magnification just reversing a vintage 28mm on a mount..
Can you actually make a microscope on multi-macro with a lot of light help?
Thank u very much for information. Unfortunately, when I sat down to find Depth of Field button, it went missing. Maybe I'll purchase a macro lens anyway.
the trick works if you hold down the DF preview button and simply turn the camera off.
Hey awsome video! But can you please please please talk in S.I units while talking about nunbers? Because Not everyone uses the imperial version
little weird macro on macro on macro vid...haha...you did good...thanks ;)
What are the extension tubes called/where can I buy them? I have one already but can't find it again. I bought it years ago.
Get a nice set of Kenko tubes from B&H

Have a 24 x macro lens it's insane but has an insanely low depth of field
I don't even own a camera and I don't know anything about cameras but I find this very interesting
how many of them would be necessary to photograph bacterias or cells?
Wow! Amazing! How do you achieve no chromatic abbreviation? 8:16
EF 100mm F2.8L has pretty low chromatic abbreviation
very well presented! .. I've used extension tubes with metering and focus, but never like the manual tubes you have. well done!
Is there a point where adding extension tubes would create distortion making your image unviewable? In other words is there a threshold limit to how many extension tubes you could add?
Looks like your lens has that glass speckle dots like mine has too. of course it don't matter just saying lol. I never noticed it until I got into macro
I did the same with an old M42 lens and two macro extension tubes. I used it for insect photography. Cool effect!
Did i miss it or did he leave out the model and size of his macro lens? And what length of extension tubes? ( they come in various lengths)
Merci !! Tes tutos sont extraordinaires
if you take alot of pictures of the money with 2 extention tubes (raw) how large would the resolution of the entire ill be?
hello, is it going to stress the motor of the aperture blades if I use that preview button while taking of the lens?
Thanks for sharing.There were a couple of handy hacks i was not aware of...Cheers from Australia mate.
I have the MPE65mm macro lens it's awesome. If you teleconvert it you can get up to 10:1 macro :-D
Reverse lens mount is a 3.7x magnification with a 18-55mm kit lens
Isn’t it called a teleconverter? (I’m just curious pls don’t hate)
Use auto extension tubes or manual lens?
