Yes, Lluis, it is really too close for most work.  I swapped to a 135 
lens which should work at about 18 inches.

Today, I magnetically attached my 2.5 diopter  close-up lens to a Pentax 55/1.8 lens on the X-T2 and went to the Buddleia.  This setup allows a working distance of about 12 inches or less, so I had to find a subject I could move in close to. This Carpenter Bee was cooperative.
