As a Macro/Close Up photographer (Flora and Fungi) I have been looking at options to get a wider field of view in then a dedicated Macro lens offers. I own the Z105MC. I have looked at the Venus Optics 15mm Macro lens but not quite what I want as the focus distance is virtually non exsistent so have wondered about using a Close Up filer on my Nikon Z14-30 lens. As an 82mm filter is well in excess of £100, before I purchase has anyone tried anything like this. Maybe there would be a better lens option if someone can think of !

I am not looking for life size but generally closer focus than what is standard on this lens. Would there be a better lens option on Nikon Z Full Frame ?

Maybe someone has put together something like this before

What diopter strength is it?

I have an ultra-wide zoom and never thought to try that. I'll have to try to find my old close-up lenses and see what it does.
