First time post in this section. 

 

I finally got my hands on a Leica Macro lens that I can use for the SL. 

A macro lens has been missing from my Leica kit. 

It is the R 100mm 2.8 APO. 

I haven't used this much but what a great lens! It is very versatile in that it is also very good for portraits too. 

My only complaint is that the focus ring turns 2 or more full turns to go from close to infinity. So if you are focusing close, then see a nice portrait opportunity, it takes a little while to zoom out. (all manual focus of course!)

The other thing I got with the lens was the 2x adapter and also the Elpro close up adapter. With everything on I can get a 1:1!

I got the 2x extender as I can now use that with my R 80-200 F4 lens. 

I would love to get the 90-280, but funds are a bit restrictive at the moment, and this set up will tide me over for quite a while. 

At least now I can get to 400mm with the 80-200 with the 2x extender. 

(Or that would be 600mm mounted onto the T!)

 

I took these pics at a small winery outside of Melbourne (Australia) last weekend. 

All with the SL and R 100mm Macro.

 

Cheers Hayden

If you didn't get the APO 2x Extender-R then I recommend it especially for use with the 100/2.8 APO-Macro-Elmarit-R; although it's more expensive than the 'standard' 2x Extender-R the APO design makes a difference and allows the macro lens (and other Leica R APO lenses) to shine even brighter.  There are a number of threads on the forum about this if you're interested.
