Macro on the M8?? Impossible Sir!!!

omigod...visomadness rampant again, we are in for a bumpy ride!

Was it Bjork that recorded as track based solely on viso code names?

Who is deeply attached to his Viso III, 65mm Elmar, 200, 280 and 560 Telyts but has just found an adaptor and a black SLmot. Feling a bit of a traitor...
 
Am I missing something? Does the MEM90/4 not work? I know it may not give greater than 1:1 magnification, but surely taht's pretty good for a rangefinder?

(ps. Wouldn't the VLux be a better/easier option for macros?)

It would- if it had a 1.33 crop sensor and the pictorial quality of the M8 - and if I owned one....
 
The MEM90/4 does indeed work with the macro adapter; I am fortunate to own it. My understanding is that the highest ratio attainable with this combination is 1:3. I am wondering if this lens can be used on the visoflex III as well with or without a bellows to achieve higher magnifications.

I'm sure it can be used like that to good effect.

You quite right. I used a visoflex III with my mem 90 to achieve approximately 1:1 magnification. I am going to shop for a bellows now.
