While going through many of the "reverse lens for macro shooting" tutorials I found that I should hold my DOF preview button and then detach the lens and reverse. This would ensure the aperture lock. However, I haven't found any DOF preview button in my canon 550D DSLR. Or, am I missing something ? Please guide me.

The DoF Preview button is on the front of your camera, just below the lens release button.

On the front of the camera, bottom right of the lens mount (as you look at the front), small round button.
