Taking pictures of your own eyes is really difficult.

This is the best one I've got so far:

Tried that. It's only 640x480 and there's no control over exposure or shutter speed. The results were rubbish, to say the least.

took this with my kit lens reversed onto my 50mm 1.8, think i must have taken about 50 shots before i got close enogh to being in focus.

That's come out really well, Alan; what settings did you use?

Mine was at 1/60 shutter speed with exposure of f2.7, with flash, in Macro mode. Thankfully the LCD on the S3 IS swings out and can be turned round, so I could see the focus doodad on the display. The biggest problem was that I kept looking at the LCD, not the lens!

the settings were 1/25 and f 1.8 but this was with my kit lens turned round and taped onto the front of the 50mm, this made it much darker and i had to shine a desk lamp at my eye and bump the ISO upto 800 to get a decent exposure. focusing was really tricky because the reversed lens makes the DOF razor thing so i just rested my cheekbone on the edge of my desk and then slid the camera towards the edge a tiny bit at a time until it was in focus, I was really really bored

I just have the one shot, it is tricky



oh, there's some photoshop going on there, just so you know
