I am truly not a macro guy. I've owned those tubes for about 6 months
or more. This was the first time I've ever used them. I get extremely
frustrated when the only way to change the focus distance is to crawl on
my belly 6" forward or back. :-) But Dean manages to defeat some of
those problems by using his 100(?)-300 Tamron zoom mounted on the Oly
Telescopic auto tube
