My first try with the new macro setup

I made a new macro-gear with the little Soligor... I get 3x lifesize this way. The 105mm f4.5 Astoria Rokkor enlarger lens + the Soligor 35mm f3.5 enlarger lens reversed... with my 67mm filters the whole thing looks like a monster :D

 

My first try:

Camera: Sony NEX6 - Spectrosil 2000

Lenses: Astoria Rokkor 105mm f4.5 @f4.5 + Soligor 35mm f3.5 reversed @f8,

Filterstack: U360 2mm + BG40 2mm

Exposure: ISO200, 20 seconds, f36 equivalent (f4.5+f8)

Lightsource: 2 cheap 20W Black Light Bulb from Ebay

Postprocess: Photo Ninja, Contrast +6, Detail +12, uncropped.

Approx magnification 3:1 (I shot a ruler with the setup and the longer edge was 8.3mm long so the magnification is 23.5:8.3 = 2.83:1)

 

The setup looks like this:

Ps.: by stopping down the reversed lens all the dust particles on the filter (not the sensor ) becomes really visible... :D
