2.0 out of 5 stars Why would one want this?

Why anyone would spend $500+ on this is beyond me. The cool thing about reverse macro work is that the mount is irrelevant (filter threads are universal, after all). What makes this universality especially nice is that there's a plethora of excellent used lenses from many manufacturers available for very little money. It perplexes me why one would need to reverse a specific EF lens. Just get a superb old Canon FD lens, or Nikkor, or Olympus Zuiko, or Pentax SMC, etc...

That being said, I've tried this on a whim in a camera store, and it does work quite well (hence the two stars). But upon arriving home, I popped my old 50mm f/1.4 FD reversed onto my 1Ds Mark II and shot some optically stunning close-up work.
