There are indeed many many versions of the little back panels for
macro.
I do not know if they have all been made in plastic. With my T28 macro
flash 1 I got 1 plastic panel (for 50mm) and a sheet of 5 stickers for
use with the 135, 80, 50 (yes, second instance), 38 and 20mm macro
lenses.
Maybe this has been done for the other macro flashguns too?
I wonder if it might be feasible to put pictures of these panels on a
website somewhere (unfortunately I don't own a scanner, otherwise I
would start right away) for the purpose of downloading and printing
them by all list members who need them.
This could be useful, like it is with the out of print manuals for
bodies and lenses.
How about copyright?
Any ideas welcome....
