Big Change for Macro Shooters (1 Viewer)

I was in the local camera store today and my salesman who knows how to push my buttons got me good. Without saying anything he opens a small box take out a piece that looks like a teleconverter and puts it on D7200 then attaches a 105 2,8 Micro lens. What he had was a Savage Macro Art extension tube. This extremely well made let you use all the electronics and it Zooms. On a Nikon mount it runs from 55 to 75 MM and the increase in magnification is awesome. We figured we were getting around three and a half to four times life size. And its much better made than any extension tube I've seen. Its two hundred dollars but it will turn a lot of good lenses into 1 to 1 macro lenses without buying one. B&H has them on their web site you can read about it there.
