Once one has it in hands it's an amazing tool to work with. I'm sure you know? But just in case, there is a "close-up tube" that allows you to do a "sort of macro shooting" as well. A completely different perspective, one might say a new way of looking at wild life and small critters when you get an opportunity to be fortunate enough to be close. :-) <<< The Novoflex variant has a variable-length extension tube built in. I keep a little friction on the extension tube section and push or pull as needed. Minimum focus with the 560mm lens head is about 12'.
