Excellent!

I suspect that quite a few cameras will do this sort of thing with combinations of lens extenders, extension tubes, and add-on macro lenses, even if manufacturers don't support them directly.

I have friends who tried this with the Canon 100mm but couldn't get it to work correctly.   I do not know about other brands since Sony doesn't have the ability to do focus bracketing that I know of....

extension tubes are tough...there's a sweet spot I've found with my Olympus setup as I can add tubes but the lighting really is affected.  I can use the Raynox 250 and the Raynox 202 but then diffraction is limiting...
