[QUOTE="480sparky, post: 205854, member: 15805"] As promised: Reversed 17mm on the PB-6 bellows with 68mm of Kenko extension tubes. (I gotta figure out why it's vignetting) [img]http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc172/480sparky/Photography%202/MostestSuperUberMacroPost.jpg[/img] The is the "D" in "AND", in the phrase "THIS NOTE IS LEGAL TENDER FOR ALL DEBTS PUBLIC AND PRIVATE". The setup: [img]http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc172/480sparky/Photography%202/MostestSuperUberMacroSetupPost2.jpg[/img] [img]http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc172/480sparky/Photography%202/MostestSuperUberMacroSetup1post.jpg[/img] By my poor method of measuring (using an ordinary ruler marked to 1/16"), the letters measure just less then 1/16", so let's say 1/20". That's 1.27mm. Of the 4016-pixel height of the D600 frame, the letter (roughly!) covers 3162 pixels. That's ~18.89mm. So, last time I went to skule, 18.89 / 1.27 = 14.87 : 1 magnification. Ah, let's just round it off to 15:1 and call it good. [/QUOTE]
