Stephen, not that this is necessarily the info you are looking for, but the 14x manual does have a macro feature, enabling close focus down to the front element.

Mmmm...

The product literature describes the track thus:

1.5 inch 85 durometer rubber

As I understood it from what I read at the time, the use of DV was purely artistic, since it provided an "otherwordly" look.
