Shot for "Macro Mondays" on the theme "Less than 2 inches".
Used Macro Extension tubes number 1 and 3 to get as close as possible but still have a little dof. Manually set the lens to f16 before attaching the tubes.

SOOC (Straight Out of the Camera)
These disgusting pests settled in my succulent plants and I really don't know what is it and how to deal with it. They are white and very small, around they make some white web. If you know something about how to deal with this pest infestation please let me know.
I wish you all great Sunday!

I had the Nikon AF NIKKOR 50mm ƒ1.8D mounted on a macro tube extension on the front of my Sony a7 while wandering about looking for candidates for the next Macro Mondays when I tried a shot of this subject (again).
I'm lying on the sidewalk on my side, sorta looking up at the flower so the stucco wall of my house is the only thing in the background.
Green but not fried! (remember that classic movie "Fried Green Tomatoes?") You wouldn't believe how small these really are in "real life." One more test shot of the 16mm + 10mm stacked macro tubes on the XF 55-200 and X-T1.

Spotted this colorful caterpillar having a munch on my grapevine so I brought him inside for a Photo Shoot with my new extension tubes.Afterwards I took him back outside, folded the leaf over him & stamped on it!! That's showbiz!

Just experimenting with macro extension tubes.
This is uncropped straight from the camera.
The macro ability is rather good but the hassle to take a shot...
Manually setting the f-stop before attaching the lens. Trying to set focus manually while the lens is stopped down and very little light is entering the viewfinder.
Late March in Illinois, it still feels like full winter and I miss green things! I captured this photo last August with my Bausch and Lomb 26mm F1.9 lens mounted on a Sony A7R II with a Fotodiox C-mount to Sony E-mount lens adapter and a Fotodiox Sony E-mount Macro Extension Tube.

The weather doesn't invite to outdoor photography today, so today's picture is taken in my livingroom.

I have been contemplating longer native macro options for my micro-four thirds camera. Currently the Olympus 60mm F2.8 is the longest macro available. It has an equivalent field of 120mm on a full frame camera and often it is too narrow and provides too much working distance for some animals I photograph and just enough for others. With more skittish animals like lizards and frogs more working distance is always better.
I have experimented in the past with mounting a Sigma 150mm macro on my E-m1ii with a Kipon Canon EF to MFT adapter and was pretty impressed with that telemacro capability. But I had the older 150mm which isn't as sharp as the newer OS version and although it can autofocus pretty well it could be better. Its also not weather sealed.
One of the sharpest lenses for Micro Four Thirds is the Panasonic 200mm F2.8. It is equivalent to a 400mm focal length on full frame. This lens has a pretty good minimum focus distance and a macro capability of .2x. So I got to thinking about this sharp lens and increasing its macro capabilities and decreasing its minimum focus distance. The best way to do that and not degrade the performance of the lens is with macro extension tubes. Extension tubes don't have any glass they are merely metal/plastic tubes that you mount between your camera and your lens to decrease the cameras minimum focus distance which in turn allows you to increase the magnification of your subject relative to the size of your sensor. Some tubes are dumb and don't have any electronic connections. Others like the Meke Mcoplus Automatic Extension Tubes pass electrical connections to and from the lens and camera body and allow autofocus, exposure and aperture control.
I decided to buy this set to test out on my m43 lenses. Note these shots were all taken hand held in poor indoor lighting with me sitting in a rolling office chair and changing my distance to the photo subject (AA battery) by simply rolling forward or backward to obtain the minimum focus distance available with each of these combinations:
Lens Only
Lens + 10mm tube
Lens + 16mm tube
Lens + 10mm and 16mm tubes
I didn't measure the change in minimum focus distance with these different setups but you can see that by adding more distance between the lens and the body with these tubes I am able to focus closer and closer giving me more magnification till I am able to overflow the frame with the AA battery.
The minimum focus distance from the camera sensor to the subject with just the lens is 1.15 m (45.28″). I don't know how to calculate the effect of the extension tubes on that value to show it is decreasing but I am sure there is probably some formula that could be applied. The bottom line is this setup works really well for creating what is the sharpest macro lens you could ever hope for In a native micro-four-thirds lens.

Note all these shots were taken at F5.6 because that is the largest aperture I would choose when doing any macro photography. Although the lens is sharper at F4 and F2.8, I wouldn't have enough DOF for most subjects I like to photo. On Micro-four thirds I think F7 is probably the best for getting enough depth of field but I will go up to F5.6 depending on the situation.
