I'm new to this DSLR game, and I was after some thoughts on how best to achieve macro shots.
I've got an olympus e520 and the wonders of google have shown i've got three options, Extension tubes, 35mm Macro lens and Macro Filters.
Of the three, Macro Filters is obviously the cheapest, and no doubt gives the lowest quality result. but what i cant seem to find info on is how bad is it? Like compared to zooming/cropping if it were to be printed A3 size or so.
So guru's should i experiment with filters or save my pennies for a new lens
