I have both the 6" and 12" close up lenses for the Nimslo from Technical
Enterprises - $29 each last time I checked.   While there's no doubt that
the more expensive Macro options that have been discussed here recently have
advantages such as better optics and through the lense composition   I've
gotten some fascinating images with both of these lenses.   The card I
submitted to the last APEC exchange was a 6" Nimslo close-up of my new-born
daughter.  IMHO, the Nimslo with close-up lenses is a worthy option for
anyone interested in Macro stereo, especially if funds are limited.
