I wonder if an extension ring might get you there.

Are you talking about something like this ?

No. That's an adapter to mount Canon EF lenses on m4/3's cameras. What he was referring to was extension tubes, which when placed between the camera and lens, will allow you to focus closer than the minimum focus distance of the lens you attach it to. It's just extends the lens farther from the cameras sensor and they have no elements inside, just a hollow tube. But you can only focus at close distances when attached. You have to remove it for normal shooting.
