[Leica] Friday Flowers SonC

Thanks, I got one of those Nikon slide copiers you were talking about
hoping I could use my Sony 90mm macro, but it didn't work .

I went looking, and found the Micro-Nikkor 55 f 2.8 at a good price, the
lens you are supposed to use with the copier.  When I opened the box it
looked  near mint, and it still has the "passed" sticker on it, making it
somewhere from the 90's I guess.

I used the micro 3.5 many years ago at the TV station on a copy stand, but
never much outside.

Anyhow, it seems to work on slides too with my Sony A7r2, the Sony>Nikon
adapter and an extension tube.  Now, I'll attack a box full of slides that
I want to digitize!  (But I still like it for flowers!)
