I sowed a packet of seed so I could get a few photos. Dedicated eh!
Taken with Vivitar 300mm - this lens is seriously good. Can get about a meter away at full zoom.

This is like the elephant gun of all lens!
It is connected using an M42 - M4/3 adapter that I bought for the Chinnon M42 fit macro lens (need to test that too at some point lol).
The 300mm = 600mm on the G1 with the 2x crop factor. Ebay £20.. and it's a cracker! I must thank Andy so much who sold these lens to me. I feel like I hit jackpot! Sample shots posted in set.
I had to use 2 sheets of A4 paper to sit it on.. it's baout the same lens of my forearm. lol
This is what happens if you sit in a hotel room late at night in Poland and check what ebay has to offer :S

At this stage I handn't worked out how to extend the 75-300mm past 75mm!
Just a weed. Macros give good sharpness test. Not bad handheld

To show how good the Vivitar 75-300mm is this is straight out the camera, handheld shot using the Raynox 250 at roughly 200-250mm. :)

Attracted by the echinacea flower which I grew especially for photos - glad they are paying off! :)

Ah, I found the zoom ..woo that's big!
This was so hard. No tripod with me so took about 25 shots handheld in hope one crisp and it was windy, lol
At f5.6 and light fading. Will try longer s/speed + more depth when on tripod.
