Product Description
Now you can take close-up shots like you never took before. Opteka proudly presents the next HD10X macro lens. Originally designed for dentists and medical use, the HD10X is now available to the public. Unlike current single element lenses, the HD10X has 4 elements of high definition optical glass that provides unbelievable detail. Cameras fitted with normal lenses do not permit us to move closer than a certain minimum distance from the object being photographed. The Close-Up lens, which is simply mounted in the front of our normal taking lens, permits the taking of close-ups and also makes possible the photography of details which would be quite impossible without using the Close-Up lens. The easy to use solution for getting extra close. These lenses enable you to get much closer than the minimum focus of the standard camera lens - as close as 4 inches from the subject. Ideal for cataloging small items and focusing on details.Similar Products

I don't know what the others liked about this "professional macro lens", but i found this item a real CRAP. From the beginning it looked weird because the paper that comes inside the box said something like "discontinued", so i was a bit skeptic and trying it finally confirmed my doubts: IT'S A CRAP; and an expensive one. You can only use this lens if your camera is on a tripod; forget about hunting insects with your camera, or following them around because you won't be able to focus unless you're a rock holding a camera, and the insect is a close friend of you to let you get as as close as 5 mm from it. So this is a lens just for studio macro, not in-field macro. May be that's why they say is a "professional" lens, because you can only use it in a studio with very special conditions.
Other thing is you should not use it with a super zoom lens, it just do a bit of job with a wide angle lens, and that's the way to avoid the vignetting you get from using a super zoom lens. I shoot Olympus so i had to use it with the 14-42 mm lens, with the 40-150 mm was impossible to get any result.
So, if you don't have enough money to buy a real macro lens, like me :), i think it would be better to buy one of those sets that have like three or four close up lenses of different X measures, or get a magnifier and place it in front of your super zoom lens and it would do a better job.

Te item came very fast, it seams to be of good quality, solid with no scratches and no defects. Great buy for the money. It also came with a nice pouch for the lens.
