Re: Solution to 39mm to 52mm Macro Coupler?

Using a 52-52mm coupler and a 39-52mm step up ring, you will have ~6-7mm distance added between the fronts of the objectives (not between the fronts of first optical lenses, which are situated deeper).

With my solution, you will have ~1+mm "negative" distance between the fronts of the objectives (like the front of 7artisans will go ~1+mm inside the Viltrox's front filter mount). Because of this, can have a gain of about 7+mm.

The combination does not have to be used at the maximum magnification level of the 7artisans lens, so the magnification level will be variable, with some differences in the area photographed.
