p.1 #1 · Sold: Canon 35-80mm macro modded lens


I have for sale a Canon 35-80mm lens that has been modded for super macro use. The mod entails cutting out the first 3 elements of the lens.

More info about the mod can be found here: http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=190428

I purchased the lens off of ebay as part of a package and the lens came to me pretty used. Also, a trim piece was cracked. Doesn't effect functionality but it's there.

The good news is the lens works great for super macro work. I have read that at 35mm it's like 1:0.8 and at 80mm it's about 1:1.7 magnification. The working distance is very close (a few inches).

Also, I am including an LED light strip (temperature of the light is pretty warm). I attach the strip with a rubber band to the lens and it works good. It takes 8 AA batteries to power it.

Below are some pics of the lens and some links to samples.
