dkCambridgeshire Posted July 26, 2015 Share #1 Posted July 26, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) Has anyone experience of using the Apo-Extender R 2x AND the dedicated Elpro 1.1:1 with the Apo-Macro 100/2.8 R lens? (Individually, not in tandem!) If so, would you buy the Elpro 1.1:1 if you already had the Apo 2x Extender R ? Thanks for reading dunk Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted July 26, 2015 Posted July 26, 2015 Hi dkCambridgeshire, Take a look here Apo-Extender R 2x vs dedicated Elpro 1.1:1 for Apo100/2.8 R. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
masjah Posted July 27, 2015 Share #2 Posted July 27, 2015 Dunk, I've never used the100/2.8R with the 2X Apo Extender, simply because I've got the dedicated Elpro, so All I can say is that the results with the Elpro are very good indeed. I've posted this picture before to illustrate this, so apologies if you've already seen it. Welcome, dear visitor!

dkCambridgeshire Posted July 27, 2015 Author Share #5 Posted July 27, 2015 dunk You can borrow my extender for a couple of weeks. Send me a PM, if you are interested. Jan Hello Jan, Hope you are well and enjoying your dogs . Thank you for the offer but I already have the 2x APO extender and tomorrow should receive the dedicated 1.1:1 Elpro for the 100/2.8 APO. Several projects are ongoing and need a means of using the 100/2.8 at life size … but was not so sure whether to use the 2x extender or if should source the dedicated Elpro . After seeing masjah's needle photo and then seeing an Elpro listed by Ffordes for £reasonable cost I decided to buy the Elpro. Projects also include the Leitz 800mm but have been waiting for return of the Olympus 500mm following its service before resuming experiments. And I now have a Novoflex R to M adaptor so will be using the 800mm on the Leica T. The latest Leica Society Magazine includes some photos of you with the 800mm in York last April.
