<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 4226546, member: 19463&quot;]Reversing the lens loses the electrical connections of the camera that controls aperture.&nbsp; I suggest accessory extension tubes which have the electrical connections and come in sets of three giving different magnification ranges,&nbsp; Only the shortest one will be of use with the 18-55 but you can use more with the long lens and shoot from farther back avoiding shadowing the coin.&nbsp; Canon makes these tubes but they are expensive.&nbsp; The cheap $15 ones work just as well but won&#039;t take as much abuse due to lighter build.&nbsp; There is no glass in tubes so you lose no quality that way.&nbsp; Be sure you select the EF-EFS mount tubes which fit your DSLR camera rather than the M series ones that fit Canon&#039;s mirrorless bodies.&nbsp; </p><p><a href="https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&amp;_trksid=m570.l1313&amp;_nkw=canon+auto+tubes&amp;_sacat=625" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&amp;_trksid=m570.l1313&amp;_nkw=canon+auto+tubes&amp;_sacat=625" rel="nofollow">https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&amp;_trksid=m570.l1313&amp;_nkw=canon+auto+tubes&amp;_sacat=625</a></p><p>Tubes are D in the image below.&nbsp; This rig is overkill for what you want.&nbsp; Start simple and experiment.</p><p><img src="https://a4.pbase.com/o10/88/582688/1/165937167.5vdchWyt.00rigcombo900.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
