My objective by now is only to "experiment" and being able to get good results. It is more the fun of learning something new about photograph, reaching a good result just for my satisfaction, than anything else. Of course no magazine...I am not a professional neither in photograph nor in models (kits). Just kidding...
On the other hand I thank you for reminding me that anyway the best is to adapt your gear to your goal, but it is very interesting your remark about the proximity sense in order to get a impression of being as close as to the object in 1:1 size. This makes me understand that, going for a "non prefessional" or "not so expensive" way, you recommend me to go for the extension tube (or any solution for reducing minimum focusing distance).
About cropping the big pictures with vignetting, this could be an idea, but in my actual case it is catastrophic. My main objective has diameter 67 while this macro lens I purchased was for 49. Vignetting is normally "slightly dark corners". In my case I could see a full "tunnel", the complete plastic circle around this macro lens I purcahsed, which leaves in the center a rectangle of just 10-20% of the original pixels. Too poor...
I am looking forwrd for your samples !!
Best regards
