Hi everyone, so today I tried to compare 2 macro set-ups of mine.
1)
100mm f4 bellows takumar with around 100mm extension tubes
vs
2)
tamron 90mm 1:2.8 di sp macro.
Here are the two images taken of the same subject, with both lenses set at f/11:
Tamron:

100% crop:
Bellows Takumar:

100% crop:
So the surprising results are that the 4 element bellows takumar annihilates the di sp macro! It has more magnification with the tubes, while at the same time better quality of image and way larger DOF!
If someone could explain to me why the DOF varies so much, I would be appreciate it as I am a bit surprised by this.
Cheers,
Yaro
