Guess the lens: Impossible!

[Tom V]

Can you guess what lens was used to shoot this stuffed toy's eyeball. The subject-to-sensor plane was about 30 inches. The magnification is much better than life-size. The depth of field was smaller than a twinkle. Handheld shot.

I see that nobody even tried to guess! Lightweights!

AF-S VR-Nikkor 70-200mm 1:2.8G
Nikon AF-I Teleconvertor TC-20E
Nikon Bellows PB6 @ about 200mm of extension
Nikon PK-13 extension tube
Nikon D70 camera

Man. That was an easy one. You should have given us more time than 10 minutes, especially during working hours...

:lol: I missed a bit, thought there were TWO bellows :lol:
Cool setup Tom ! :righton:

[Carlton]

Wow Tom, you are right , no one would of guessed that..

An awesom setup, to say the least. It would be interesting to take that in the public to see what kind of response you would get!

I'd be impressed if the lens was reverse mounted !! :D

It's wiggly and unsharp.
Nikon VR sucks.
I'm switching.

Belly IS rules.

The extension tube and bellows prevent the VR (and AF, and auto-exposure metering) from working. The shaking (if any) was caused by the back spasms caused by carrying this thing around.
