[cgipson1]

Don't be homing in mon my girl Gipson.
She loves me. Just ask her.

Depends on WHICH girl you are talking about!

 

[LightSpeed]

Stay tuned Gipson....................this is just testing this here tele.

Next up...........the tip of a pen from a 200mm Tammy, wearing the 25mm extension, and the teleconverter.

working distance?
19.5 inches..............from the end of the lens...........not to the sensor.

The tip of a pen.
200mm Tamron 70-200, F2.8,,,,, 25MM extension tube, Vivitar 2x macro teleconverter for Pentax. The A type.
Shot in manual, controlled enviroment, tripod, Yongnuo 560 flash, F14, 1/160
Working distance, 19.5 inches at 170mm.

Not bad for an affordable piece of glass.
Will be good for larger critters like butterflies, bee's , larger spiders, while keeping distance.

She's first.
BlackRose is married.
Lets not get into the specifics of the list.
When you're standing on a ten foot ladder with 100 foot roll of glossy and un-roll it until it hits the ground, while holding your arms up as high as you can.
It's a long list.
She's first.

 

[LightSpeed]

MIRROR BREAK!

 

[cgipson1]

MIRROR BREAK!

Jeezz... like we didn't know that was coming! lol!

 

[LightSpeed]

OK I'm back. 26 minutes was long enough.

Hello Gipson. lol
I knew you would be here. haha
Anyway, I'm just testing something out that's considered somewhat unorthodox.
That is , sticking and MC7 2x macro focusing teleconverter on the camera, topping it with a 25mm extension tube, topped by the Raynox DCR250 and of course the ring flash.
I had some ebay bucks so the converter was kinda free, brand new. It's a pretty nifty piece of 7 element glass.
I know all about degradation of image quality, but I just wanted to test it out.

This is what I came up with. Not too shabby.
This is one of the really small species of hover flies.
Head is about the size of the ball on the point of a pen. Give or take.

Nice Shot! Did I mention that I sold my Macro lens? Yep.. somebody bought it within minutes of posting it! I am putting together my own secret weapon! BWAAHAHAHAAHHAAAAA! (ever tried to get a permit for home nuclear fission? Ain't easy.. I promise!)

YOU SCARED HIM OFF LIGHTSPEED !!!!!!

he knew he was defeated. knew he couldn't hang against you.

way to go!!!!!!! :thumbup:

He's probably modeling his leopard hat for some unsuspecting woman.

 

[naptime]

at least we hope it's a leopard hat.

it could be a leopard thong!

Let us hope Gipson doesn't take it too far.
I'd hate to see him on the cover page of " High Times."
