Kenko MC Close-up Lens NEO No. 2

This is a close-up lens that was included as a free gift with a lens purchased on Mercari. The original lens was used, but I have not used this close-up lens myself.

We have renewed the MC Close-up Lens, which allows you to easily take close-up shots at an affordable price.

A close-up lens is a handy macro photography accessory that you can use simply by attaching it to the front of your existing lens.

It allows you to get closer to your subject than the minimum focusing distance of your current lens (the shortest distance at which you can focus on a subject) and take larger shots.

Using a close-up lens opens up new photographic possibilities, such as filling the frame with a part of a flower or capturing details invisible to the naked eye. It is ideal for close-up shots of flowers and small objects.

■ Filter Diameter: 49mm

◆ Allows you to get closer to your subject than the master lens's minimum focusing distance and take larger shots.

・ Compared to macro lenses, close-up lenses offer affordable close-up photography.

・ They are compact enough to fit in your pocket, making them easy to carry around.

・ While general macro lenses are prime lenses, attaching a close-up lens to a zoom lens allows you to zoom in on close-up shots.

・ There is no exposure compensation required, so shutter speeds do not become slower.

・ Multi-coating is applied to both sides of the lens to reduce reflections.

・ They can also be used in combination. For example, No. 1 + No. 3 = equivalent to No. 4. No. 2 + No. 3 = equivalent to No. 5.

・ Special effect filters such as PL filters can also be stacked.

*Please note that stacking filters may increase the thickness of the frame, potentially causing dark shadows in the corners of the image.
