Great!

Perfect for getting macro shots. Considering the price I wasn't expecting stellar quality but was pleasantly surprised. They aren't perfectly sharp but for most uses are definitely sharp enough. Only complaint is a petty one but the carry case they come with doesn't hold them tight so you have to be careful when opening it as they will slide out. Fortunately, they're durable since one hit the floor and it's fine.

The Vivitar 55mm Close-Up Macro Lens Set includes +1, +2, +4 and +10 Close Up Lenses The high quality optical magnifying lenses are diopters for close up photography, which shorten the close focusing distance of the lens. It allows the lens to go closer to the subject than before and to achieve a larger image scale. Lenses can be used individually or in combination for maximum effect.
