After reading an interesting article about close up photography with a wide angle and extention tube I tried it for myself. I like the possibilities of this setup.
Will work on it to get better...
My first attemps with Nikon D700 and 16-35 F4 with extention tube, captured at approx 5 cm from the subject:
Thanks for looking.

Re: Close up with wide angle lens...
I don't know much of the theory behind it, but what is the advantage over a normal macro lens? Extended depth of field? Or a wider angle of view? Or both?

Only the much wider angle of view while having the main subject quite close, an effect, -)special effect- which is impossible with a classic macro lens.Leen Koper wrote:I don't know much of the theory behind it, but what is the advantage over a normal macro lens?

Unfortunately I don't have the right to copy the article from chasseurd d'images about this here, but they have some great samples and it's interesting.

Re: Close up with wide angle lens...
The principle looks very attractive, the subject and backgrounds should be chosen very carefull.
Passioned by beautiful pictures, not a very active photographer though...

Re: Close up with wide angle lens...
Quite nice article. The images were quite an eye opener and they brought back memories from a long time ago. I had almost forgotten how effective this wide angle technique works.
