What's the highest possible magnification you were able to reach with DSLRs/mirrorless?
My personal record is 90:1, using an old Leitz 90:1 microscope lens, but with rather disappointing IQ. Same with modern Olympus 100x. I'm still looking for other cheap and better alternatives. Do you have ideas?
Testtarget was a polished steel surface.
Leitz 1h 3.5:1 (another RMS microscope lens - works pretty decent as taking lens) @ 5:1, Sony A7
90:1 Leitz Apo-Oel 90x 160/- (using glycerine instead of oil)
