are these worth a punt?

probably cheap and tacky, worth a go for a tenner though?

They are worth a go for the money. I've had 2 sets for different cameras over the years. As with anything else, you get what you pay for. Fine for personal use.

Yes. Definitely worth a punt. Had mine about a month now, and love having a play.

Got to be worth a go - oh, well look, the results speak for themselves.

£10 for these - other sets will be more

£10s for extension tubes - not so easy to work with necessarily

£100s for a dedicated lens

I got extension tubes and are happy with the results but you have to apeture and focus manually.

I also bought a wide angle kit and that came with a macro lens and it has some good results but not as much magnification, however you are looking at a series of lenses which do look like good value.

An example of my macro tubes:
