A few pics using the bare XH-A1 with and without our new 72mm HD achromat. In other words, using the achromat as a macro filter. Note the blue/yellow fringing from the XH-A1 that simply drives me crazy. What is great is that you can see how clean the achromat is, in spite of that. Closest distance to target using the bare cam was about 50mm...with the macro, 20mm. I don't own a macro stand so these shots were done with the stamps set up in front of the cam on coreplast. DOF is super shallow shooting like this so not having the targets perfectly square to the camera was a bit of a challenge.
