Questions & Answers

FAQ

What is the main function of the +3.5 Achromatic Close-up Diopter?

The +3.5 Achromatic Close-up Diopter is designed to provide high magnification for detailed and close-up shots in macro photography. It attaches to a camera lens with a 72mm thread and provides a magnification of 1.88x.

What makes the +3.5 Achromatic Close-up Diopter different from single element diopters?

Unlike common single element diopters that compromise on image clarity at close camera-to-subject distances, the +3.5 Achromatic Close-up Diopter features two highly corrected glass elements that effectively minimize chromatic aberration and distortion, ensuring sharp and true-to-life images.

Can I use multiple +3.5 Achromatic Close-up Diopters for increased magnification?

Yes, multiple diopters can be stacked on the front of the lens for even greater magnification, expanding your photographic possibilities.

Is the +3.5 Achromatic Close-up Diopter suitable for industrial applications?

Absolutely, the diopter is not only ideal for macro and close-up photography, but it can also be used for high-magnification visual inspections in various industrial settings, such as monitoring manufacturing processes or inspecting hard-to-reach objects.

Adam D : If I used a step up ring from 62mm to 72mm would this diopter work with my Sony PXW video camera?
David K : I'm trying to figure out if the +2.0 or +3.5 diopter is better suited for my needs. The objects I'll be videoing are roughly 5-6 cm (~ 2 inches) in length, but I'll be zooming in occasionally. Which would suit my needs, the 2.0 or the 3.5?ANDREW R : This is really dependent on the size you want to render the object. The +2.0 may give you a bit more flexibility in terms of shooting distance than the +3.5.
