T3D Re: More macro quesions,... using slide bar

It sure sounds like the cheap 50 mm lenses that fit my SLR
aren't as good at closeup work as RM's Leica lenses!  What 
magnification were you using, Bob?  Can you do 1:1 with that 
lens?  I'm amazed you get any quality at all out of it in 
macro.  But then, Leica often amazes me.  You don't want to
try it with a Canon 50 mm f/1.8, I can tell you.  Throw a few 
diopters on the front and it isn't half bad, though.
