Leica M (Typ 240): Close-Up Samples - Part 2
This page presents further sample close-up shots with selected parts of my close-up equipment for the Leica M (Typ 240) to be used in live view mode: the Quenox Extension Tube for Leica M in combination with one or two Marumi +5 achromats (lenses: Zeiss Sonnar 50mm f/1.5 and Voigtländer Color Heliar 75mm f/2.5) and the extension bellows Leitz Bellows II (lenses: EL-NIKKOR 50mm f/4 and Voigtländer Color Heliar 75mm f/2.5).
See also page Close-Up Samples - Part 1 for further sample close-up photos with the Leica M (Typ 240).
Combining Extension Tubes and Achromat(s)
The following photos were taken with the Quenox Extension Tube for Leica M (1 cm extension) and one, or two Marumi +5 achromats. Theses combinations deliver the strongest magnifications but less distortion than achromats alone. The shots are all hand-held in this section (typically with an aperture of f/8).

Extension Bellows
The following photos were taken with the Leitz Bellows II and the Quenox Extension Tube for Leica M to adapt the bellows to the camera. On the lens side, an adapter for M39 lenses (16590) was used. The shots in this section were made with a tripod and typically f/16.
