Hi, I was just wondering if anyone new a cheap close-up lens for my canon A80. Like the cheapest possible. I love the macro mode, but I wanted something even stronger. Thanks :lol:

Read the "A70 super macro" thread on top of the page.

Ditto.. reverse-mouting an SLR prime is probably the best "bang-for-the-buck" you're going to get with P&S photomacrography

Also, you can try to get an adaptor and close up lens / filter, which is a cheaper alternative. However, quality will be compromised.

If you want lenses + adapters etc. I've been looking for some for my A95, the ones here http://www.lensmateonline.com/newsite/order_Aseries_1.html are suitable for both A80 and A95.
