I bought a very cheap TTArtisan 50mm f2 (£80 :D) but the minimum focus distance is quite long so I bought a 43-67mm step up ring to allow me to use my close up filters and I think it works well. This was taken with my No.4 close up filter. It looks just about perfect for flower / detail pictures when out and about.

In his belly, < Sarlacc.> you will find a new definition of pain and suffering, as you are slowly digested over a thousand years.
