Actually, in my experience even the cheap close-up lenses work okay, "IF" you stop the lens down to f16 or so.

Rebekah, I have used close-up lenses many times, and I find that good
quality ones are fine.  Focussing ease is not affected, as the lens is still
used, but of course your focussing range and DOf are much more limited.  No
doubt thare are some "bottom of a bottle" versions available, but those from
a good lens-maker should be OK.

Actually, I talked to my dad about buying that type of lens, however, he
says that they are distorted and don't focus very well. I tried one out
and found that I didn't like it very much, and while reversing my lens
does give me a quite limited focus range, I like it a lot. How do you
find that the close up lenses work for you?
