wda Posted April 26, 2019 Share #26 Posted April 26, 2019 2 hours ago, nicci78 said: APO-Macro-TL 60 is made for macro and portrait APO-TL 55-135 is made for long distance shot and portrait. Just choose your weapon wisely. But you do not need both. Really, I’ve done it before. Too much overlap. And TL 60 is way more useful : better build, real macro 1:1 and faster aperture. Of course I cannot get the 135mm (200mm) reach For more comparison from sensor : TL 60 has 1:1 magnification at 16 cm distance with smallest object of 16 mm. TL 55-135 has 1:8 magnification at 100 cm distance with smallest object of 125 mm 100 cm minimum focusing distance at all focal length can be a real problem indoor. It is possible to focus the TL55-135 closer than one metre IF you fine-tune focus manually. Try it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marac Posted April 26, 2019 Share #27 Posted April 26, 2019 Advertisement (gone after registration) I use an old Elpro 3 on mine when I need to get a bit closer, it works very well for things like Butterflies or Flowers etc. They can be found quite cheap on ebay, you will need a step up ring to use it 55-60mm Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are all from beautiful Île de Ré in France APO-Macro 60 did not make the trip. I shoot the island with TL 11-23 and TL 55-135. Most used lens was 55-135. I did not keep the 11-23 also. Because somehow I found it in competition with the Q. I decided that I did not need wider than 28mm. But I do need the fast Summilux-Q Edited April 26, 2019 by nicci78 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With APO-Macro-TL 60mm you will get the tiny flower fully magnified. Edited April 26, 2019 by nicci78 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicci78 Posted April 26, 2019 Share #30 Posted April 26, 2019 If you found 70cm minimum focusing distance of M lenses annoying, 100 cm of 55-135 will be even more annoying. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marac Posted April 26, 2019 Share #31 Posted April 26, 2019 2 photos taken with/without the elpro 3, MF, minimum focus distance, granted it's not 1:1 macro but it's certainly close enough for me.

Jake Posted April 27, 2019 Share #34 Posted April 27, 2019 I'd like to learn more about the elpro filters for these lenses. Old ones and new. Macro is new to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macro is new to me. Macro, is theoretically 1:1 and above. But if you want to give close-up a try you could do far worse than a Raynox close-up lens. From experience I would recommend the DCR-150, the 250 I find not very user friendly. https://www.amazon.com/Raynox-DCR-150-Snap-On-Macro-Lens/dp/B0007KS7D0 https://www.closeuphotography.com/raynox/2017/6/3/raynox-close-up-lenses 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
