Macroconverter for OM lens

[andy_jansen]

Hi All,

I want to buy a decent macro lens.

Now I can buy an OM macroconverter

The seller tells me that it should be possible to make a 1:1 macro with the original OM 50mm lens.

Anyone experience with this kind of converters, or should I focus on a dedicated macro lens?

Kind Regards,

Andy Jansen

I use a canon +4 diopter and also a + 2 diopter, 52mm thread achromatic converter lenses (250D & 500D) which give stunning results when screwed onto my panasonic 14-45mm lens.

It also works very well when fitted to the panasonic 45-200mm zoom, but is limited by the quality of the zoom.
