OK, this was a question I asked a while ago, and nobody gave me an answer, and it REALLY BOTHERED me...

So..

I'm reading my Shutterbug catalog...  And... Tada!!

OK, if I have a 50mm lens, I can "Macro-ize" it by adding an extention tube...

So... If I have a digital camera, and the lens groups are "tucked" away when not in use, that means, the entire assembly of lenses, are on rails and motorized movement. If I move the entire setup out about 1/4cm, at the size of the ccd and the lens, that's probably equal to a pretty large extention tube on a regular 35mm..

:-D  I solved my own riddle..  Just thought I'd share..
