Trying again to attach a photo. Hello Bsprague. Yes, I use an adapter ring. The LUMIX 30mm macro has a 46mm filter thread. The Nikon ES-2 comes with two adapters, and I use one of those screwed into the step up ring (I bought separately) that goes from 46mm to 58mm. I am attaching a photo. At the left side of what you see, a slide holder for two slides permits you to do two photos each round. There is another holder for negatives. If any questions, just PM me and I’ll try to help further. JimR
