Playing with a new lens

JCMhouston

I just got in a new macro lens for my Sony NEX C3, I really like the resolution although I wil have to change my lighting setup. This will capture a sixpence at about 1800x1800 pixels for the actual coin, although I had to move a little farther away and reduce that to 1275 x 1275 to get some light on them. The only problem is it's only a 30mm (about 45mm equivalent in 35mm format), but it's not bad for a $249 lens and it will do until someone comes out with a 100 or 150mm macro.
