with this cheap extension tube set. All metal. three sections, 7, 14, 28 mm, 49 total. I took this phot with my canon rebel xt and the 55-250mm lens at 100mm with all three tubes attached. I think i paid $10.00 for sometime age (new) just for funsies.
Only one shot, but what is in focus looks pretty good handheld. This is larger than life. Is there a way to calculate life size. All manual since no contacts transfer the lens to the camera. Now I have to get my rail out and do some stacking. I used to do macro years ago. I think I might start again.
Thanks Bill. It has more depth than I would think.

A very nice result, Frank!

It's a passion flower. When I feel a little better, I'll get out my old focus rail and do a stack.. thanks for looking.

Thanks Mike. I appreciate it. I tried at 50mm but 2 inches was to close for fill flash.
