NiSi Close-Up Lens
Oct 6, 2020
Anyone here with experience using the Nisi 58mm Close-Up Lens? What magnification and working distance can I expect? I was thinking about using one on the following lenses-
Fuji 50-230mm
Rokinon 50mm/1.2
Viltrox 23mm/F1.4
also, adding extension tubes is an idea of mine but am not sure if it's practical using the close-up lens. Before that, I was thinking about getting a 7artisans 1:1 with infinity focus that can achieve greater magnifications using extension, but I haven't been very succesful in reaching a verdict about which product to obtain. The interesting idea of using the close-up lens on the Fuji lens is that I might possible be able to finally use my camera's built-in focus bracketing, because it has AF. With the 7artisans, which is only manual focus, I can most likely achieve better image quality but my camera's focus shifting is then not used, which it hasn't been used ever since I bought the camera back in October 2018. I might need to buy both products if I can't reach a decision, but am not sure that I want to do that. I mainly have wanted magnification up to 2:1, but more is not needed for my type of photography.
