Aw c'mon! This attempt looks very good to me.

I will have to make some shots and take a look at that SW.
One challenge for me is that I don't have an IF macro lens. I did find
an old focusing rail at the bottom of a drawer the other day while
looking for something else, but It's a wobbly little thing. Just hope
it will be good enough for testing the concept... :-)

Anyway, I have a 6.7 kg enablement to check out first. <vbg>

Best,
Jostein
