Hi Neal,
the universal digital attachment for all lenses is fun isn't it !!!

Today I was trying a 500/8 Russian mirror lens as a macro, I had been hoping 
to 
get some shots of the full moon but it clouded over so I tried something 
else - 
didn't work out though - ah well, tomorrow is another day.
cheers
Douglas
