at least for my old ass film setup, my macro lens caps out at 1:1 with the extension tube (which I don't actually have for it, so its really a 1:2). meanwhile with my bellows and a regular old 50mm lens I'm able to get a theoretical maximum near 3:1, although in practice that's only going to be rarely possible. picrel was with a ~10" extension IIRC, which is somewhere between a 1.5:1 and a 2:1 ratio. I've tried to use my bellows with the macro lens but the depth of field is extremely narrow at any major extension and i've had little success with it. I'm sure part of it is just that I'm inexperienced and using ancient equipment, too.
