: I would like to be able to do similar shots with my new Olympus. What
: accessories would you most recommend to get me started?
The first thing I would be looking for is the Zuiko 50/3.5 macro. It's
affordable, and can be mounted straight on the OM body, contrary to
macro heads which need extension like a bellows or the telescopic tube.
Next, the 25mm Auto Tube will get you into the 1:1 macro range
(non-Olympus auto tubes with approx. the same length will also do).
Try to get the 1-4(n) focusing sceen to get rid of the unusable focusing
aids in the centre of the standard screen.
A sturdy tripod, preferrable with maco options to get the camera at a
low level is very usable. And a cable release.
If you want to use flash get a T32, preferrably with a TTL Auto cord
0.6m or 0.3m, a TTL Auto connector 4 and a flash bracket. This will
allow off-camera flash.
