E300 Dual Lens Kit with EX-25mm

selamatlzh · 22nd September 2005

After purchasing EC-14, I have decided to buy EX-25 to unleash the full potential of my kit lens.

Below are the result of my experiment.

ZD 40-150 (before)

ZD 40-150

ZD 14-45

Extension tubes are designed to enable a lens to focus closer than its normal set minimum focusing distance. Getting closer has the effect of magnifying your subject (making it appear larger in the viewfinder and in your pictures). They are exceptionally useful for macro photography, enabling you to convert almost any lens into a macro lens at a fraction of the cost while maintaining its original optical quality.

The pics are excellent. one question:

how close can you get with the ex-25 with 14-45 & 40-150 at max zoom?

They were taken a few centimeters away.

MF and AF.

MF on the zoom part this where the distance between the subject and the lens is concern. AF for the fine focusing. Is abit complicated but it works.
