The Olympus 60mm F2.8 Macro lens is one of the best macro lenses ever made, and also perhaps the most misunderstood one. The shortcut 1:1 dial on the lens is a convenient feature to have, it allows you to quickly jump to full magnification the lens is capable of. However, many people do not understand how the 1:1 dial works and they wish it to be a function that is impossible to be implemented - they want the full magnification to stay at full magnification while they move the lens and camera around. I am clearing up this confusion, and hope to make you see that the 1:1 shortcut is actually a brilliant, useful feature that can help you to achieve great macro results. I made a video to explain all this, you can check it out here (click).
