Yes that's the one! Love it. I think we had some good threads going on
the usefulness of the 7mm tube in particular back in the day. It's a very
cool look, and you've nailed it (and my memory did not fail me, yay).
Eventually I got the Oly tubes and a 21/3.5, with which I was NOT able to
duplicate what you were able to do with the 21/2. But I attribute that to
failings other than the 21/3.5. :(
