Absolutely Amazing Macro Capabilities!Review Date: February 4, 2009 Reviewer: Eli Houston, Alabama This thing is amazing. I was looking at some $700 macro lenses, but thanks to this I no longer need one.
Because there is no glass in between the lens and sensor, the image quality is not affected at all. What you get are clear, crisp macro images.
I experimented with this (see the product pictures) and was shocked at how good it worked. Yes, everything must be done manually - exposure, focus, etc. But it's definitely worth it. You can get VERY close to your subject - I was only about one inch away and the focus was great.
Thanks to this, I saved $700 and now can take amazing pictures with my kit lens (18-55mm) and Nikon D40.
Some tips:
To get the best results and focus the absolute closest, zoom your lens out as wide as it will go. The pictures I have submitted were taken at 18mm.
Use as much light as possible. I used a simple flexible desk lamp to light my subject, and still had shutter speeds of about 1/2 a second.
Use a remote release - you need to reduce vibration as much as possible.
When focused VERY close, all the dust on your lens and camera sensor will be visible in the photo. You can take it out fairly easily in Photoshop, but it is best to keep things as dust-free as possible. Perfect. Don't waste your money on the Nikon version!Review Date: January 14, 2010 Reviewer: Adrian J. Reynolds, Ann Arbor, MI USA Forget the reviews that claimed it was impossible to use. This thing is simple and works perfectly.
Nothing else really needs to be said. You lock the lens adapter on the body of your camera just like you would any lens, then screw your actual lens onto the the other end of the adapter, head-first.
when done, just unscrew the lens and remove the adapter just like you would any other lens, or remove the lens and adapter as one unit, then unscrew it from the front of the lens.
Dead-simple. Don't spend $30 for the Nikon-branded one. it's a waste of your time and money.
My equipment (all of which tested to work with this adapter):
Nikon D40
50mm f1.8 Nikkor (prime)
18-55mm Nikkor (standard lens)
55-200mm Nikkor
If you have a D40 and have any interest at all in trying out Macro photography, don't hesitate.
Understand, this approach is not going to be a perfect solution to side-stepping all macro lenses, but it will work well until you save your pennies up for a true macro lens. will add pictures soon. Great buyReview Date: January 24, 2010 Reviewer: Mcdonald Mirabile, Arlington, VA What can I say? This thing works as advertised and is very inexpensive. I'd recommend also looking at step up/down rings to use multiple lens for reverse macro photography. It worksReview Date: May 3, 2010 Reviewer: Luis F. Reyes, TX USA It works, but is not possible to control anything (Nor the focus, nor the aperture). You can be very close, but is difficult to master. I took some photos with the standard Nikon 18-55 lens and the result was good, but difficult to master. I give 5 starts because this ring is cheap and works perfect (Again, the problem is my technique, not the ring). Terry for the Nikon D5000...Review Date: June 9, 2010 Reviewer: T. Cregan, Winter Springs, FL USA If you have purchased the Nikon D5000, you need to purchase this to mount any Micro lenses to your existing lenses, etc. This does not come with any Combo package, even when you think that it should. This is a great addition to any D5000 package, and you WILL need this! Related posts:
