@ damnuglydoge
How do you shoot macros with your galaxy? Did you use an external magnifier in front of the lens? And did you just use the stock camera app?
Thanks, this is a great thread!

I have a old phone case I use. The round lens is wide and x10 I think.The other lens is x20...

I use Snap as my camera app...
But it's holding it still and lighting that makes all the difference...
That and cleaning the lens then not touching the flowers helps a lot as well... :biggrin:

Thanks. I need too find something like that. Without an additional lens,I can't get very tight on the flowers before it gets blurry. Yours look pretty freakin good considering its a phone.

I bought an Olympus 14 Megapixel camera, with a macro capability.

But I haven't gotten any close-ups that I'm satisfied with.

I'm wondering if some of the Cannabis Photographers here are putting their camera on a tripod, to get the killer macro shots.

Nice weekend to all! :]

@ Ignatz
I like the way the heads are catching the light in the 4th and 5th pic. Like the magic they possess is radiating out.
