Hi all. I have my first Pentax K-50 with the two kit lenses but want to do some macro work. I am an old timer with SLR experience (Canon A-1), but this is my first DSLR. I'm disappointed by the lack of macro capacity on the kit lenses.
What do you recommend for a macro lens under $500? I don't need zoom and don't need new. Also does not have to be a Pentax or AF.
I don't know how to work the tubes - that may be the answer but maybe someone can point me in the direction of what to buy and how to use them?
Many thanks!!
