This is with a x2TC behind the extension to make f11, effectively, f16. A wider shot would have shown more petals but they are just more of the pink shown. There was a small amout of vignetting in the corners, cloned out, camera in manual mode, fill flash TTL RC.

The stereo is crosseye.

    Nice Harold! I am tempted to explore monochrome options on first one!

    Good stereo Harold. Think you are losing too much definition shooting with the TC like that for my taste.

    I have checked it out with my EM-1, including crops with and without a TC, and that is not the case. The problem is DOF.

    Harold I think you have a rather different DOF/detail ratio sensitivity to me :)

    Brian,

    I don't see the A7R replacing my EM-1 for macro when the crop factor gives a glassless x2 TC effect. There is nothing to gain and more hassle involved. Ultra wide-angle lenses, which is its intended use, are looking good on it and such lenses are not an option on a cropped sensor. The shutter shake problem which affects longer lenses is not a problem with those lenses.

    Well, here is a simulation with my EM-1, first with just the Kiron, and then the Kiron with a x2TC (not the same one as previously for mount reasons). Without the TC it was f16, with it f11. Working distance was adjusted to give similar framing. Processing identical, no cropping.

    There are some DOF and angle of view issues, so you have to compare like with like.
