[QUOTE="Mr Magoo, post: 459520, member: 3008"] Sorry, not to crash hot on the technical side with terminology but Dihusky describes the 4 3rds part in post #2 (I think the correct name is micro 4 3rds) and here's a link to the actual lens [url]http://www.stevehuffphoto.com/2012/11/28/the-olympus-ed-60mm-f2-8-macro-lens-review-for-micro-43-from-a-guy-who-never-shoots-macro/[/url] Yep! Shot 4 for me also. The garnet performs quite badly, the cut is called 'Oliveira's Garnet' and it's meant for darker stones. But it didn't live up to my expectations at all. A sorry end for an expensive piece of rough 8.( .I since have bought 'Gem Cut Studio' which shows it could do with being 'optimized' so may give it another crack with a bit of tweaking. I just down loaded the image from the camera as a jpeg and then loaded them into 'paint.net'. Cropped then saved them. Here's the original image of shot 5.
