[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I'm using the Nikon ES-1 Slide copier with the Leica R 100 Macro lens and the Elpro 1:1 extender and numerous step up and step down rings to make everything fit. I'm still experimenting!! It works fine on the M240 but I want to make it work on the SL, too. The limitation on that seems to be the R to T off brand converter that I have. I've ordered a Leica R to SL converter that should work - $750!!!!!!! It had better perform miracles. I'll keep you posted.
