Get a set of extension tubes. Non-OM manual tubes are the cheapest,
then Olympus manual tubes and, finally, if you have the money
Olympus auto tubes. By "manual" and "auto" I mean that the "manual"
ones close down the aperture as you change it (making it difficult to
frame and focus when you're closed down, but "auto" tubes don't close
down the aperture until the shutter release is triggered.
Works good... relatively inexpensive (compared to a 50/3.5 macro for
instance)... and lets you keep driving that car.
Hope that helps...
