Product Description

Now you can take close-up shots like you never took before. Opteka proudly presents the next HD10X macro lens. Originally designed for dentists and medical use, the HD10X is now available to the public. Unlike current single element lenses, the HD10X has 4 elements of high definition optical glass that provides unbelievable detail. Cameras fitted with normal lenses do not permit us to move closer than a certain minimum distance from the object being photographed. The Close-Up lens, which is simply mounted in the front of our normal taking lens, permits the taking of close-ups and also makes possible the photography of details which would be quite impossible without using the Close-Up lens. The easy to use solution for getting extra close. These lenses enable you to get much closer than the minimum focus of the standard camera lens - as close as 4 inches from the subject. Ideal for cataloging small items and focusing on details.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great value and great adapter 29 Dec 2011
By Nola's mum
Amazon Verified Purchase
Having lost my previous macro adapter and expecting to have to pay more than this to replace it with something halfway decent, I was delighted to find this. Compared to the cost of a true macro lens, it's fabulous value for money. You maybe do need to know how to use one but when it do it adds a whole new dimension to your existing camera. It's especially great if you have a fixed lens camera with a thread, where you wouldn't otherwise have the option of macro.

The image through it is clear and sharp, with a good level of detail, a better option than close up filtres.

The only comment I'd have is with calling it a lens, which could be understood as meaning a proper lens for a DSLR. It's not, it is a lens adapter that screws onto your existing lens. But then you wouldn't expect to get a true macro lens for £20, would you?

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good value for money 15 April 2012
By Nude Chimp
Amazon Verified Purchase
For £20 this is a great product. Focusing is a bit of a challenge but quality of the pictures is very good. With some practice I reckon you can get some great shots with this lens.

It comes with a nice black bag and cleaning cloth. It's fairly weighty and feels well made. Fits on the end of any Canon 58mm lens and is double threaded (so you can attach something else on the end of it if needed).

5.0 out of 5 stars Opteka Macro Lens 28 Feb 2010
By G. Barnett
This lens arrived really quickly and was put to use immediately. Fantastic quality pictures when used with an 18-55mm Canon lens. I will be looking at more lenses from these people in the future.

The Macro attachment is a nice bit of kit and makes a good addition to my Wifes camera equipment, will be ideal until we can afford a good quality Macro lens.
