I see several options for an "attachment" that covers the LCD and allows fine focusing in live view while blocking extraneous light. I am looking for folks who have one, and use it. They aren't terribly expensive, but I don't want to waste money on a toy that doesn't work.

According to the EXIF file you have a DOF of about 3 mm with the lens/aperture combination. If that doesn't give you the result you want, stop down a bit.

Humans have been altering their appearance for a long time. Probably for as long as we have been human beings. There are no doubt some cultures that would look at the stereotypical female "western" model with great disgust. Painted on lips, rouged cheeks, enhanced or artificial eyelashes and more come to mind. That isn't the "natural look of her body". Tattoos, piercings or other body modifications aren't a whole lot different. They may seem "different" or "odd" or even"ugly" to some of us, but in the end, it comes down to the personal choice of the woman (or man) who is applying what they feel is an enhancement to their body.

I don't have any tattoos, and don't plan on any, but I wouldn't shy away from photographing them. Some of the comments here a simply blatant manifestations of the posters narrow-mindedness.

What that model, or anyone else chooses to do with her body, is her business. Period. If you don't like tattoos, skip to the next post. Nobody will miss your snarky and parochial comments. At least I won't. I sure wouldn't miss wading through all the muck to find comments on the merits of the photography itself.

I own a 3 50's. A 1.8 G, a 1.8 D and a 1.4 AI (manual focus). I almost always grab the "D" lens, unless I need the extra light. The 1.4 is hard to beat for low light. I can't see any difference in the performance of any of these. I suspect you would have to look very, very critically at a very large enlargement to find much difference

My order of preference, which is also most to least costly:
A good macro lens
A good prime with extension tubes
Diopter lenses.
If I want to shoot a macro subject, I usually grab one of my macro lenses. The other options are just too "fiddly", especially for outdoor work.
If you don't mind a manual aperture, an enlarger lens on tubes or a bellows is also an inexpensive alternative that works very well.

Try Olympia Camera Club.

Thanks!

The fixed aperture is a bit of a problem. This lens is pretty "soft" at 2.8.

What magnification are you aiming for?

I missed that in the title of your post.

Single point and BBF. Almost every time.

70-180mm f/4.5-5.6 AF-D Micro-NIKKOR

1:1.32 at 180mm (Use a 6T close-up lens for 1:1)

Sounds like a nifty addition to my bag!
