[QUOTE="Vixen, post: 277789, member: 21839"] I did this to see what extra I could get by putting extension rings behind my 105mm macro lens I had to do it handheld as I don't have a fine adjustment setup for my tripod so the focus is not fantastic, but looking at how much of the coin is visible, you can see how much closer you can get to the subject (in this case the match head) so....with just the 105mm lens (at effectively 157mm on my D7100 acc to the exif data). I didn't change ANY camera settings and focused by moving the lens closer.
