cc33 Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 Had some fun with macros today, the macro lens for iphone is really cool! I also used photoshop app to get the look I wanted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hcaht Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 Good looks. Are you referring to a separate add-on lens? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cc33 Posted July 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 Thx, yes it's called olloclip they sell it at best buy and the apple store Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbane883 Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 Great pics.. did you use a mini tripod as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cc33 Posted July 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 Thanks guys, no tripod but that would probably help, I'll go get one . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanuq Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 I have a tripod ... it was a 4-legged dog until the bear got to him. Send me the watch and I'll photograph it for you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbane883 Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 Its amazing what you can do with the iphone camera.. I rented a 105mm Canon lens from Vistek couple months ago for a few macro shots using a DSLR and a tripod... Your shots are just as good if not better... its all about the lighting too... You captured the warmth of the gilt dial/hands really well. Are those gen hands? Or CWP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cc33 Posted July 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 I haven't tried a real camera/macro setup yet but I can imagine it being cumbersome and hard to do in the windowsill unlike the iphone which is for the most part flat, it helps to really get into the shot. If I was using a light box then the iphone would be useless. It really is all about the lighting, the iPhones sensor is ok in good light and with the help of the macro lens and photoshop it creates some nice stuff. They are relumed and aged cwp hands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbane883 Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 This is the best I could do, unedited. Held a 10x loupe up against the iphone and tried not to shake. Your Ollioclip goes to 21x I think and is crystal clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cc33 Posted July 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 The olloclip is only 10x or so I believe but I can use the iPhones zoom to enhance it. Those shots are all at the normal non zoom and these are using the digital zoom.. I've tried using a loop but the optics aren't ideal for shooting.

Mendota Explorer Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 (edited) Cc can you take more of the watch? I'm still dying to see the whole thing in its glory. That dial is so incredible...

cc33 Posted July 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 Amazing shots Jion! I love macro pics very much I've posted a lot of my wrist shots in the daily wristies threads so that's probably why I never made a specific thread for them, here's a few of my favs Mendota 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbane883 Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 @cc33, just curious.. Is that a Phong case or Mingh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbane883 Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 Here's a stronger effort: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cc33 Posted July 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 Thanks Jion, I made it. Dbane, it's a phong case, I like the more prominent bevels on his vs the Minh case but others prefer an older look to their case Wow , great pics, what an amazing insert!!

Nanuq Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 You know what's really ironic? By the time we're old enough to comfortably own these beauties our eyesight has degraded to where we can't SEE them anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mendota Explorer Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 Wowee wow wow! That is incredible. Those pics are beautiful. I'm so envious. I really hope to be able to build something like this one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
