On a 35mm SLR and focused at the closest (appr. 150 cm) a human head, including the hair and part of the neck, will fill the frame. So why be able to get any closer? Jens Bladt mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hjem.get2net.dk/bladt

The modern zoom lenses do really well to focus as close as they do. The newest prime I have (FA50/1.7) focusses at 0.45cm, I think, which is ballpark. Of course macro lenses don't follow the rule of thumb. Just heard it on the grapevine :-) Kostas
