Warren,

I can't afford Viagra pills.
I think your creativity has a chance for me.

Warren, I am proud to say you do not excite me anywhere near as much as Jason. As a matter of fact, I may just NEED Viagra after reading this thread.

I'm glad you were able to use my budget macro tool. Now I really think that maybe others should try this superb tool with their E-10 and it's also designed to work with the E-20. So lets everyone get going and show us your best macro shot using the 2002 Warren's Macro tool.

Warren,
I am also unable to spend money on expensive macro lenses. I want
to thank you from the bottom of my heart for this "freeware" macro.
Wow, my photos will now enter into a new realm!
Thanks!

I must admit that I only made jokes because I did not fully understand the technology you had presented to us. I am sorry.

Here is my first attempt and I feel it turned out okay. I though the subject matter was good, although it quickly occured to me I shouldn't try this on the selected subject with the sun behind me. Although she claimed it "stung" and "hurt" (wahhhhhh!) at first, she now has 20/10 vision.

I have given up photography and opened an eye care center. Thank you for helping me discover my life's direction with your powerful new tool.

Thanks for the idea. With all the Olympus gear so expensive here in Australia I'm willing to try anything.

As luck would have it I had a chance this morning to try it out on one of our local birds.

A little disappointed with the results though, seems to get very heavy pincushion distortion - any thoughts on how to overcome this - maybe I was just in too close.

keep the good ideas flowing

regards

MJP

PS - a while back I did (seriously) make a macro lens from a magnifying glass glued into a UV filter ring - worked ok, but had a depth of field of about a tenth of an inch so quite difficult to focus

Yes Dr. Gage

I didn't want rave about the multifunctions of this fine piece of equipment. I was afraid that deman would outstrip supply before all my friends here could acquire it. I'm sure they'll be showing up on e-bay soon. Maybe you could become a distributor also to help supplement your new medical field.
