Been inactive for a while, largely because of IT issues and website building. But finally did one over the weekend.

Nass I check your photo on flickr and was trying to decipher your lens set up. You mentioned the Raynox DCR 150 on tubes and some sort of Nikon Lens?? Would like to hear more if you would. I have the DCR 250 and have used that with 36mm of tubes and the tokina 100mm. Does a wonderful job, but finding the more magnification the more need to stack. Have not made the jump to stacking yet, But still would like to learn more about your lens/tube/DCR setup. I've been playing with the reverse lens stack and reverse lens on tubes. Love the magnification, but the Less DOF is the trade off. I'm thinking if I really want to get serious results, or keep up with the Jones's I need to stack. Thank you

Hello fstop22. Douglass has it right, they are the components I used. I had the Raynox on 210mm extension (with bellows), then the microscope objective beyond that.

I looked at several of the links. What did you used to attach the objective to the front of the lens? Is it something you made? or available commercially?Hello fstop22.

Complicated - my setup has a focusing helicoid and m42 diaghragm in it, with all sorts of adaptors in between. But the part to attach objective to lens is http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nikon-CFI-M25-microscope-objective-to-M52-52mm-adapter-/360287554493?pt=US_Lens_Adapters_Mounts_Tubes&hash=item53e2cfcbbd

I have seen several photographers here that I hold in esteem. You are one of those few.
