Thanks heaps Jon, you made me realise that I had one of those Canon close up lenses from way back when. Now I have yet another project - go find it

BTW The 2-element ones are quite a bit better than the 1-element ones. The "D" at the end signified it is a Double-element one.

Oh and I did like this from the Canon article I linked...

"When you attach a close-up lens to your camera lens it acts a little like reading glasses for a far-sighted person."
