Review on Unlock Extraordinary Close-Up Detail with Raynox DCR-250 Super Macro Snap-On Lens by Heidi Garcia

I use this product to photograph insects in my garden. In the attached photos, the cooler/brighter/fully focused frame crops out a nude macro photo. A warmer/softer light/clearer focus image is a crop of a photo taken with the DCR-250. (Both captured from the same fly, at 100mm, minimum focal length, f/29, with two large off-camera flashes illuminating the visor. Both captured with a Tokina 100mm macro lens on a Nikon D7100.) That can its difficult to shoot bugs on the DCR-250: it takes me about 10 seconds to get the shot sharp and there's only 4-5 inches between the front of the lens and the subject - most bugs can't take that level of attention and disappear before I can take a picture but when I can take them the details in the photos are great! , and makes it thin as a razor. Closing down to f/29 is my best answer for a slight increase in depth of field, but it also means the camera needs really intense light to expose in a reasonable amount of time: so I always use flash for macro shots. In other words, the width of a dime is the width of the photo I can take of it. Other lenses with different focal lengths may fit more/or less/ in the frame, but this gives an idea of how close this device can get you to small objects.) The ability to quickly pick up and reattach the DCR-250 is very good practical. Big. (Most bugs don't stay put, so I don't get to take comparison shots like the ones that come with it very often, but I still appreciate being able to quickly remove or use the DCR-250.) I appreciate it, too use the DCR-250 with any of my lenses without having to buy a lens size converter. For small subjects, the DCR-250 is a great way to increase magnification to get good shots of small subjects.
