But I would never be caught dead with that piece of junk on a 5D ! There should be DSLR Cops to confiscate one’s camera for idiotic performances like this.

I did create a supermacro lens by creating a reverse-ring myself (glueing 2 rings together) and mounted a Canon 50mm 1.4 lens on a Sigma 70-300mm lens.
