路You don鈥檛 actually need high end equipment. What matters is good lighting and idea. You can even start with cold light bulbs in desk lamp and soft box made from white printer sheet 馃榾
Thanks.

路Im not terribly experienced but the least expensive way to try this is with extention tubes (very inexpensive if you go aftermarket). Then use a basic zoom lens, most likely your kit lens (lens that came with the camera), and experiment with different focal distances. Your bound to get a few good shots this way.

+1 for the extension tubes - they are great fun. Definitely pick up a set that allow your camera body to communicate with the lens though, so you can adjust your depth of field via the iris / f-stop at different focal lengths.
