You're welcome!
What lens did you use here?

Canon 100mm Macro lens and 68mm of Kenko extension tubes. Gives up to 2:1 magnification

Would the Canon 100mm be compatible with the EOS 40D?
I am interested in getting into a bit of macro..

Sure is. It'll fit on any Canon camera. Personally, if I were buying my first macro lens again, and knowing what I know now, I'd get the Sigma 105mm f/2.8 Macro lens. Make sure you get the Canon mount one, because they make the same lens with Nikon mounts. It's cheaper than the Canon 100mm, has the same working distance and optical quality. I got one for my fiance and it's just as sharp, if not sharper than the Canon.

Yeah I had my eyes set on the 105mm
seems a good lens at a good price
I will be sure to get the Canon mount haha.
You know much on wide-angle lenses? I am interested in getting one of them aswell for my 40D!

I have the Canon 10-22. It's VERY wide. Again, I've heard very good things about the Sigma 10-20 and if I had my time again would probably get that one instead - cheaper and just as good performance-wise from what I've read. Haven't used it.
I don't use my 10-22 much these days. When I got it, I had a 24-70 as my standard lens so needed that extra width. But I've since sold the 24-70 and got a 17-55 which is much better suited to me - I probably don't need the 10-22 much now except on rare occassions.

Yeah I was told the Sigma 10-20 was a good buy
is it as wide as the 10-22?
I think its goer with its price and quality as far as I'm concerned
