Take 2

The Eurygon – like pretty much every DKL mount lens – suffers from a longish MFD – 0,9 meters in the case of the Eurygon. Simultaneously, the 30 mm Eurygon is well-loved for being an interesting close-up lens (once a suitable extension ring has been mounted). These images (at a working distance of ≈20 cms) are far from true macro (closer to 1:3)
