Oh yeah: http://www.robertstech.com/vivitar.htm Vivitar version 1 actually goes to 1:2.2, version 3 only goes to 1:2.5 but I sometimes use it with a two-element close-up diopter to get almost 1:1 magnification. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
