Macro Photography with E-300

[rcolman]

Just had a chance to use my new 35mm macro lens on my E-300 inside of an Ikelite housing. What a wonderful combination! Took about 150 underwater images yesterday on Santa Cruz Island in Southern California.

Autofocus was quick and accurate, even under murky low-light underwater conditions. Autofocus seems quicker and more accurate than on my 14-54 zoom.
Was able to fill the frame with small nudibranchs with mag ratio approaching 1:1.

Highly recommend this combination!

Here are some sample images:

Nice shots, Rick!! The one with the yellow nudi on the grey swiss cheese like sponge is especially good.
