what to do?

[Marcuscarcus]

i have an old kit lens from a canon rebel 2000. its 24-55 i think. i have already messed around with using it as a macro lenses which is awesome.
Any other ideas of what i can do with it?

Drink coffee out of it?clicky

Mostly I just use my old lenses for gathering dust

Convert it into the worlds smallest diving pool for ants! ...err, oh, no... not what you meant! ... If it was awesome as a macro, stick with it :-)

the coffee cup idea is pretty awesome. love gizmodo.
im never satisfied with just stickin with it.

I hear ya.. that said, I just had to do some snaps of some cards I'm writing a post about and, for a change, went with my old camera and my first lens (fifty)

So, what did you have in mind? Change its focal length? Or something like this?

i have no idea. i am into alternative (for lack of a better word) forms of photography like solargraphy and i just got an old kodak camera to try through the viewfinder photography.
Do you think there is a way to hook this up to a holga?

I'd like to see you try, and I'd love to see the result... gaffa tape?

Could try taping it to a camera phone too? Even better...paint a red ring round it then tape it to a camera phone
