1. ZOMG that set up is dead sexy! I would visit the store just to stare at the empty tanks and stands.
2. Chicks with large power tools! You guys/gals are SERIOUS !
3. Nice camera! Get extension tubes for your 24-105 and you won't ever use the 100mm Macro again :-D You'll get more depth of field with your closeups/macros. 100mm macro is nice too but much more challenging to get useable depth of field.

Thanks for the tip!

I have been experimenting with a 25mm extension tube. I just don't have enough experience with them yet to determine what lens would be best for my application. I am looking forward to spending some time with it.

Or you can use the extension tubes on the 100mm macro to blow things up even more!

or that :-) I find it exceptionally challenging to have extension tubes on the 100mm macro though.. but that's probably just me. Your depth of field is razor thin.

Ya, I usually end up at like f16 which is virtually impossible for me to use while suspended over my tank LOL.
