Have a new Canon Didital Rebel XT and tried using a Canon close up lense and a Special Effect Lense(one that is cut to give 5 imagesof the one you are looking at.)
Nothing seems to work. However, when I use the Circular Polarizing Filter, I can see the difference it makes thru the eyepiece while rotating the Polarizing Filter.
Why can I not see the other two lenses do their thing thru the eyepiece?

Thanks for your time.......................Buggutz

You're probably not seeing this because the 5x special effect lens is designed to work on a full-frame camera and your DRXT has a sensor that's much smaller trhan that. Look closely at the edges of your photo and see what you get there. BTW - was this a linear, or circular arrangement you were expecting? A circular would be much less likely to show up right.
