It's amazing how different things look when you get in real close. I used the Raynox on these. I've found out how to calculate the magnification using this and it's roughly 1x for each 100mm of the 55-250, so at full zoom it's 2.5x (that's well into the realms of the macroscopic  :mrgreen: )

Real cool macro shots here. I remember when I was younger, i thought microchips were tiny cities, with little buildings and grass everywhere  Grin
