'Affordable' VM close-up lenses

     People looking for an 'affordable' set of close-up lenses for their VM
camera (either Mark II or Personal) can make pin-sharp images for as little
as $50.

     I use a pair of matched Zeiss Proxar close-up lenses with my Mark II
and can work up to 3ft away without a slide-bar, and up to 6inches using
the bar.  The lenses are labeled:f=0,5m A.28.5, and can be found at most
camera shows for quite cheap...even though they are razor sharp optics!
Now, mine are slip-on, but I'm sure that something is available for the
(series 5, I believe) lenses on the Personal.

     So how's that for affordable?!

                                                :-)jamie.
