The '+3 diopter' refers to the magnification power of the lens. A +3 diopter lens allows for closer and more detailed shots, making it ideal for macro or close-up photography.
The rotating tray allows for quick and easy alignment of the split line. This helps create dramatic near/far effects in your shots by seamlessly blending the transition between the near object viewed through the lens and the distant objects imaged through the blank space in the filter.
The Broadband Multi-Layer Anti-Reflection Coating, also known as MC Coating, is a special lens coating that reduces reflections from the lens. This helps prevent unwanted ghost images and reduces stray light or lens flare, ensuring clearer, crisper images.
This lens is designed to fit 4x5.65" matte boxes using just one matte box slot. It's compatible with a wide range of camera lenses that can accommodate this size.
While this lens is specifically designed for close-up or macro photography, its innovative design and high-quality construction make it a versatile addition to any photographer's toolkit. It can certainly be used for general photography, but its unique features are best utilized in close-up shots.
