Shooting Fujifilm Macro Photos (without macro lens or tubes)

April 17, 2020

IMPORTANT: make sure that you have ’shoot without lens’ set to ON in your button settings in the Fujifilm menu. Go to the little wrench, then choose button/dial setting.

Don’t have the Fujifilm 80mm Macro Lens or any macro extension tubes? You can try this technique out to simulate a macro shot. WARNING: This is a worldwide-pandemic-only hack and can damage your equipment if you are not careful and paying attention. Use these tips at your own caution. I’m not responsible if you damage your sensor!

If you are able to get a macro lens or macro extension tubes delivered to your location, here are some to try:
