With a huge arsenal of camera gear at their disposal, the folks over at BorrowLenses can do a lot of fun and random experiments that us ordinary folk can only dream about. After first stacking lens filters and then teleconverters, they've gone to the next level by stacking $150,000 worth of camera gear into a Christmas tree.

If you'd like to take "lo-fi" photographs with your DSLR, but don't want to spend money on a pricey specialty lens just for this purpose, you're in luck. In this tutorial I'll be showing you a simple "mod" with which you can get a similar effect for no money at all! You’ll need a piece of scotch tape, scissors and a lens.
