[PRODIG] Macro photography (on sinar)

[Andrew Woods]

Using a Sinar 23  I have been shooting some close up shots of jewelery 
and was hoping for some insights into improving the optical side of the 
system. I was shooting on a variety of lenses (none specifically 
digital) all over 300mm,  also I used a componon 80mm mirco for some 
extreme close ups....  As always there's a trade off between 
enlargement, aperture, lens performance and depth of field. The factor 
of enlargement is  better than film due to the small size of the ccd, 
but I was hoping for pointers to further refine my work. Has anyone 
experience of the sinar 120mm macro or recommendations for lenses 
"digital" or otherwise that g work well.  Has anyone experimented with 
reversing lenses to this end on this kit?( it strikes me that this 
technique with film was intensely akward but with digital could be 
relatively workable....

as always, thanks for your considerations.......

Andy
