i just found a lensmate raynox msn-202 macro/close-up lens that i think i'm going to get to see what it does... the sample pics shown look pretty crazy and it's the has the crazy price tag of $89.95... guess it just takes the inherent g11 lens and gives it a lil boost.... no crazy good lens for the g series though; that's dslr territory exclusively... i'm interested to see what this lil thing will do for my very limited macro shooting needs; living and dried flowers
