Vivitar Series 1 +1 +2 +4 +10 Close-Up Macro Filter Set w/Pouch (52mm)

Using with a Nikon basic kit lens 18-55 plus a slide copying attachment to hold the film. They work extremely well for this. The image quality is great, their value compared to buying a macro lens is (price a new Nikon macro len)! Easy to use just screw in and the filters themselves their quality is fine. Been a professional since the 80's and a very pleasant surprise.

Awesome, cheap way to increase the magnification of my existing lenses. Easy to use amd the carrying case was great.

Seemed like they were well made but got the wrong size but they were goid price I'm returning for correct size

As the manufacturer suggests, these lenses work well for photographing flowers (when they bloom) and insects (when they smile). I have tested these close-up lenses with a Nikon AF-S DX Nikor 18-55 mm 1:3.5-5.6 G VR lens (the type supplied with many Nikon camera kits). This lens is fairly versatile, and it can focus to within approximately 6” of a subject even without close-up lens attachments. (Other cameras have lenses with 52mm threads which can accommodate these close-up lenses.) Setting the camera lens at its longest focal length (and greatest degree of magnification), with a +1 close-up lens a 2” subject will fill the camera viewfinder; with a +10 lens 1.5” subject will fill the viewfinder. The magnification with the other close-up lenses falls within these extremes. With a fixed focal length lens of normal focal length (circa 42mm) the degree of magnification with these close-up lenses will be slightly less. These close-up lenses can be used in combination for greater magnification, but any lens used in combination with the +10 lens must be attached to the back of the +10 lens. If you have been into photography for some time, especially in the pre-digital years, you may have a large collection of 35mm slides. Making digital copies of such slides confers many advantages. They can be leveled, and/or cropped, and their brightness, contrast, color, and sharpness can be modified. Thus, in some cases, the image on a digital copy may be a vast improvement over the original slide. And, being easily reproducible, multiple digital copies of an image can be assembled in separate groups relating to family, to travel, to art work, etc. Digital images can easily be shared with friends and family members. Various commercial slide copiers are available, varying widely in cost. But if you want a challenge, you can make a slide copy stand with which these lenses will work well. (See photographs.) I have copied slides with these lenses and find they give good results, with no loss of sharpness across the resulting digital images.

Easy to use, with a handy pouch, these well-made lenses / filters are crystal clear and a great value. My test shots show the quality to be quite high.

Edges are pretty darn distorted. Center is okay.

Amazing!!! Captured my baby jumping spiders beautifully!

The 4 macro lenses arrive in a well-printed shelf box containing the 4 lenses and a velcro-closure pouch with 4 pockets, one for each lens. The lens mounts are high-quality precision made with a male screw and a female screw that allows the photographer screw more than one lens into the camera to achieve, potentially, up to +17 diopters The formula to convert from Focal Length in mm to diopter is: Diopter = 1000 divided by Focal Length in mm The 10, 4, and 2 diopter lenses were within 10%. The "flattest" lens, the 1 diopter, was 19% low. What is the actual impact of diopter accuracy while using the lenses? Not very much. You try these auxiliary lenses singly or in combination until you can fill the central part of the frame with what you are after. My conclusion is that these lenses are high quality, as you would expect from Vivitar, at a very reasonable price.

Makes close up shots on the ace pro more visually appealing. Action cameras have hard time focusing on objects within certain ranges so this eliminates that problem.

buen producto, apenas empiezo en la macro foto, hice algunas pruebas y todo en orden, tal como marca la propaganda

GOOD

This is a good product from a reputable company. You do need an attachment adapter bought separately if you want to use it for the insta360 ace pro 2 , which is what i am using it for. Overall a great product.

These Close up Filter use only on Manual Mode .not auto mode ...
