[Leica] 90 macro

[hoppyman at bigpond.net.au (G Hopkinson)]

Thanks Len, I'd seen those, I think, as you posted them, without noting the 
equipment. Very nice stuff in the genre.
Do you find that the macro adaptor is easy to use, as far as placement 
accuracy?

Cheers
Hoppy

I also have the 90 APO but find I use the macro more.
