Very nearly right Rick. It was the 65mm MP-E Macro lens. Basically a
variable set of extension tubes going from 1X through to 5X. Brilliant
lens. but if you turn the barrel fast enough you can actually feel the
air sucking in / pumping out of it. Well, naturally, as it changes
physical size drastically. It put a lot of shit on the sensor, you're right.
