Higher magnification: the tasty and the disgusting ...

The first pictures serve to get an idea of the scale (tip of a tooth pick) and the range of DOF (fully open / fully closed, trading DOF for detail resolution).

I did measure it now it is 9:1, 4mm pictured on a 36mm frame

Thank you, Frank.  Here is my expression of gratitude in a bizarre way.  Nikkor-O 55/1.2@2.8, reversed for around x5 magnification.

Cool shots... did you try increasing the contrast at all?
