Here are the specifcation of the lens. On 350D, the sensor is APS-C 22mm x 15mm.
Are the following calculations correct?
1) At 300mm, the mag is 0.26, so the smallest square to fill the frame is 85mm*58mm (22/0.26, 15/0.26);
2) At 300mm with EF25mm, mag is 0.39, the smallest square to fill the frame is 56mm*38mm;
(22/0.39, 15/0.39);

On Tamron 90mm Macro. I have 1:1 mag, the smallest square will be 22mm x 15mm.
With EF25 attached, I can shoot a square of (22/(0.39/0.26) = )14.7mm X (15/(0.39/0.26) = )10mm.

:confused:
