Re: Cheaper Macro options

I use the cheap AF extension tube set (A <US$15 10mm +26mm Fotga tube set).

14-42 mk-I on GX7 & 16mm AF extension tube

The above is not for contest of any kind, just an OOC jpg test shot when I brought those extension tube set.

On using these extension tubes, they are much cheaper than other options, have original AF speed and accuracy preserved, and I can have a peace of mind not putting anything that might affect the original IQ of my lenses, but at a cost of very short shooting distance which might block ambient light or not applicable to all shooting environment.
