I am very pleased with the Raynox

I’ve heard good things about Raynox, but if I go with a closeup lens I want to be able to cover larger diameter lenses, esp. my Rokinon 135/2 which is 77 mm filter thread. I had good results from borrowed Canon 250 and 500Ds back some years ago (when I was still a Nikon DSLR user). The Canons are great quality, but expensive.

Does anyone have experience with the Marumi or Adorama branded achromatic close up lenses? They are available in more powers, and in 77 mm, and sometimes a bit less expensive than the Canons.

Thanks for your post.
