I have just learned that the 24/3.5 II has a very good close up ability: 1:3. Combining this with its TS ability should give some very interesting results. As I am very interested in close up photography I wondered if any of you have exploited this ability. If you have, please post your pictures. TIA.

I have the first version, but try it with a 25mm extension tube. You can focus on pollen sitting on the front element... ;-)

Dave Lovely site, Dave; those fog shots are amazingly beautiful. I'm paticularly stuck by those longish lens shots of ridges and river banks. Rob C |

Simple WA close up is less interesting. I already have 12mm tube, 10-22 and 17-55/2.8 IS (not to mention 60/2.8 and 100/2.8 IS). I'm interested in WA close up + TS, for the special effect enabled by the TS.

...I'm interested in WA close up + TS, for the special effect enabled by the TS. Yes, that's what I was referring to. The ability to use TS up that close is fun. I said 25mm but meant 12mm. Lovely site, Dave; those fog shots are amazingly beautiful. I'm paticularly stuck by those longish lens shots of ridges and river banks.
Rob C Thanks Rob, I'm now using a 90TS more and more because I like the isolation a moderate telephoto provides. I visited Michael several months ago and after reviewing some photos he said, "You need a 90TS." He's just full of good advice... Dave |

Especially tilt is very interesting for you can change the ( shallow) depth of field just how it works best for you. Also with 24mm you can shoot macro and show the larger environment at the same time. I have done some macro photography with fisheye and that is also very interesting |

These are lovely images. Can you please provide the TS data? It is only one image.. a total and a 100% butterfly part... That is one of the things they still have to cover in the exif -data- the shift and tilt... From my memory- No shift and some forward leaning tilt. Otherwise the buildings would be more vague.. d11 400 asa .... ... |

with an extension tube, the focal plane is practically touching the lens element. Amazing closeup capabilities. I have only briefly experimented with macros using this lens.
