So, I did some experiment what magnification I would get using my Panagor 90/2.8 as basis. I mounted the lens in front of 68mms of tubes and on the other end I mounted a reversed Pentax-M 35/2. I know, these are not the best photos artistically spoken, but I'd like to show you some of the results.... These are handheld and none of these are cropped BTW!

My jeans - or at least a part of it....Laughing



Some aphids







A green weevil snout...



And some indication of the magnification...

Shocked
Can you photograph all the gear joined together!
Amazing aphids how much time do you put into taking these shots?

When you get closer a whole new world opens Smile
For some it's a bit scary (maybe not just a bit Wink

Nice shots

Admirable results!
What 35mm 2.0 did you use as a magnifier glass for the macro lens?

How do you focus? I've tried tubes with my Dine 105mm but it makes the viewfinder sooooo dark I can't see anything.
