Quoting Mark C <[email protected]>:
Toine - the Raynox sounds like a worthy addition for macro work. I
had been toy with the idea of just using a 50mm macro plus adapter,
but the 15-45 zoom has me re-thinking that. I see that the Raynox is
configured to work with 52 - 67mm lens objectives. How do you mount
the Raynox onto the 40.5 mm Q lenses? Does a 40.5 to 52mm step up
ring do it or do you need some sort of adapter?
I asked the same question of Toine a couple of months ago. You only
need a step up ring. Here's the link to his reply in the archives:

I'm still toying with the idea of getting a Raynox.
Cheers

My 15-45 arrived this morning. First test shots amazed me. Very sharp
and very little CA. My Q kit is now complete (01 02 03 06 and a raynox
250 for macro). The raynox 250 on the 15-45 @45 looks like a winner.

I ordered the 06 Telephoto zoom last week, and it arrived last night. This
is just another marvelous little Q lens - it retracts to be not much larger
than the normal zoom, but to use it you have to turn the zoom ring
to extend
the front element a bit, so while in use it is maybe an inch
longer than the
standard zoom. The 15 to 45mm zoom range is equivalent to about 85 - 250 on
a full frame 35mm body. The two zooms, normal prime and fish eye make for a
nice little (very little) kit. And at f2.8 you can even get some bokeh with
this lens.
A quick test shot -

Looking forward to using it!
