Must be real close to the object. That's why it's best used on object with very minimum movement.

For those two insect pictures I took, I'm using a 18-55mm lens reversed. Shooting distance is almost as close as 1 inch plus to the object.

Another thing must take notice is that the object got to be brightly lited so that the lens can capture it's presence. That's why I took the pictures under the sun just now. Sometime indoor light not bright enough. Plus the more you zoom in the brighter the place must be.
