Great buy December 25, 2008

After considering extension tubes and finding macro lenses so expensive, with Nikon not making a close up lens any longer, someone in a forum mentioned this close up lens. It works superbly and is of high quality. Works great with my 18-200 vr zoom lens and the photos are focused and crisp. Autofocus works great with the product.

I bought this close up lens to go on my Nikon 18 - 200 mm Vr lens. It makes my lens even more versatile. Since I keep my zoom lens on the camera most of the time, the close up filter allows me to quickly take close ups by just screwing it on the end. It's so convenient, and a whole lo cheaper than buying a macro lens. It also fits easily in my bag.

It really does the work it is advertised to do... and it really does it well!!
It's Bokeh is very good and very pronounced (just as a macro lens would) and it does soften images just a bit (it's Ok for my standards).. The lens is quite heavy and realy picks up handshake though, so it will require a tripod for sharp images...
It produces amazing close ups that I wouldn't have been able to do with my nikkor 18-200 VR lens..
Bottom line: If you have the money to buy a macro, then please do and forget about this lens, but if you are somehow in a budget, then this little piece of glass really shines!!! Highlly recommended!!!
