So I reverse mounted my A 28mm f2.8 on my DA 50-200mm...
Focusing rind becomes magnification control and focusing ring.
Pictures coming as soon as they come off the card.
The magnification is crazy and the time it takes to get anything in focus is mad.
Harsh sunlight only I'm afraid, there isn't enough light if I diffuse it.
EDIT: Sadly I have discovered they are all out of focus
Oh well, off to try again...

It was definitely getting bad. I decided not to post because of the direction it was taking.

Is there no swear fitler on this forum? Most other places I post I can't type crap without it being blocked or changed.
'Arse' or 'ass' on an other form I frequent gets changed to 'American bottom'. Anything else gets changed to 'bad use of language' which can make for some very funny sentences.
Oh and the MD of the company that runs the forum added the name of an R&D chap to the filter and it got changed for stupid (on the 1st of April). That caused quite a few problems as people started flaming the poor guy who didn't even post idiot, we had written the guy's name.

But, why stop the chickens eating naturally? Plus, you can't guarantee what they eat. They will pick up and insect they see and gobble it.
A high protein diet produces much richer eggs, as long as they are not given cr@p. Grain and insects are all good for chickens.
Wouldn't mind having some chickens...

Chicken keeper at the organic urban farm goes round the vegetables picking up slugs into a bucket and feeds them to the chickens. Eggs from there taste wonderful Tyr wrote:
My OH brought a sunflower seed back from a field in France. The seedling got eaten by slugs It has been so wet that we had a plague of slugs. They were so hard to control and they seem to be coming back. Time for some more nematodes.
Indeed, I wd need any army of hungry hedgehogs, seeing as our blackbirds and thrushes seem to be in decline My OH brought a sunflower seed back from a field in France.

I'm a vegetarian most of the time because my OH is vegetarian.

There are hordes about with the bayonet one side and filter the other, for reversing a lens directly on to the camera mount, but I haven't seen the type that you're presumably using.
I fixed the 28mm lens to the inside of the lens hood of the 50-200 and made sure it was level with an empty filter so they pressed against each other (but no glass made contact).
I'd take a picture but, the only working camera in this house is currently my K10D. The S20Pro is in Germany...
This is fun, except the light has gone And I've discovered that F16 and above vignettes quite badly. F11 is about right but lacks DoF.
