[QUOTE="480sparky, post: 204394, member: 15805"] For those of you who shoot with bellows, you're probably aware that reversing lenses gets you higher magnification. I've been shooting with an old 28mm 2.8 Ai-S lens for over a year now, and have reached mags close to 7:1. I read Nikon's chart where they stated a 20mm reversed would get to 11:1. So, just for S&G, I got an adapter ring for my Tokina 17/3.5 SL so I could reverse it on my PB-6 bellows. I set up a US dollar bill, and moved in. This is the top part of a number 5 in the serial number. [img]http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc172/480sparky/Photography%202/17ReversedonPB6post.jpg[/img] I figure I'm at 15:1 here. I'll toss on the extension rings some day and see where that gets me. [/QUOTE]
