Review on Marumi DHG 72Mm Achromat Lens by Michael Wilson

After using this lens for a while I decided to change my review. First, the quality is surprisingly good. You can buy them one size to fit your lens, or you can buy a larger size and use them with an adapter ring so they work with several different lenses. The only downside to buying a larger size is that they are a bit heavy and the larger the size the heavier they are. They work best with Zoom, in my opinion, because Zoom lets you change the magnification as you zoom in and out. +5 works best with zooms in the 50-200mm range, while +3 works best in the 200-300mm range. +5 is too strong when approaching 300mm and +3 is too weak when approaching 100mm or less. If you get too strong you can't focus because the magnification is too high, and if it's too low you might want to crop the photo a little instead of buying this lens. Once a lens is attached, the focus range decreases, requiring you to remove it to focus outside of its range. A true macro lens lets you focus as close or as far as you want. Aside from these limitations, they are capable of very good close-up photography. They are easier to use than adding extension tubes. Unlike extension tubes, adding one of these lenses doesn't change the aperture, but you still often need to lower the aperture a bit to get the entire subject in focus. Since good macro lenses like the Tamron 90mm Makro F2.8 cost between $400 and $500, it's worth trying one of these lenses. Don't buy cheap singletons as the quality is terrible. These are two-element achromats.
