135 F2.0 + Life-Size Converter. F2.0, 1/250sec 550 Flash manual focus
Guess I don't really need the Sigma 150 macro that I have been lusting for.

I was wondering if there are gaps with the setup you use and just what it may be. 20D w/BG, Canon 24-70 f/2.8, Canon 135 f/2, Canon 1.4TC, Tokina 17 f/3.5, 550EX, 420EX, 220EX, off shoe flash, Canon G5, Gossen Luna Pro F, Photo Shop CS 2, and a good bit of other stuff (but, I still miss my Mamiya RB67).

It allows you to focus closer than "normal" but you sacrifice the distance... If that be the case and since the LSC costs as much as the 50mm f/2.5 macro, which focuses from infinity to half-lifesize, perhaps some may wish to consider that alturntive. 20D w/BG, Canon 24-70 f/2.8, Canon 135 f/2, Canon 1.4TC, Tokina 17 f/3.5, 550EX, 420EX, 220EX, off shoe flash, Canon G5, Gossen Luna Pro F, Photo Shop CS 2, and a good bit of other stuff (but, I still miss my Mamiya RB67).
