I don't have one at hand but I would be very surprised if it's not very
close to 25mm. What might make your project more interesting is to use a bad
50/1.8 as the tube so that you have a helicoid giving you an adjustable
extension tube (similar to the apprx $50 vivitar macro TC). The only thing
magical about 25mm is that it gives 1:1 with the 50mm macro.
