I have the Raynox 250 & the Sony 90mm f2.8 Macro (probably my favorite lens overall, & I own 10 Native Sony lenses + ~12 3rd party, hard to pick a #1 overall but the sharpness of the Sony 90, the “clutch shift” focus ring to switch from manual to autofocus, plus the additional on lens physical (CUSTOMIZABLE) Button (& 2 settings switches), & above all else the fact that the 90 is also a FANTASTIC portrait lens gives it just the slightest edge over the other Sony lenses I have or have had previously. (With the “old school” 35 f1.4 Distagon coming in a close 2nd) It was cool to see your experiments & results with the Raynox & the 90mm, I have also had fantastic results with the Sony 55 f1.8 + the Raynox, as well as a vintage Nikon 200mm adapted to Sony + the Raynox, as it provides a slightly more workable shooting distance (you have to get in CLOSE with the Raynox on most lenses, I haven’t had a chance to work w/ the Nisi, if it allows for a further shooting distance that may well be a big plus as well)

The raynox does have threads, it's 39mm if I recall correctly, so all you need is a step-down adaptor. I used it on a setup involving some kind of 87mm threaded optics.

@anotherperspective3076 4 года назад

True, but I don't own the right rings yet, but it would be interesting to see what magnifications can be reached on long lens, have you measured it?

@diatomsaus 4 года назад

@@anotherperspective3076 Unfortunately not, I never used the raynox for photography purposes. I only ever mounted it on a 70-200 via the step-down rings (custom adaptor I ordered) just to see if everything is right. AF actually works, quite reliable on a tripod. Another idea, why not just cut a piece of thicker cardboard, make it into a concentric circle. Shove the raynox in, and push the cardboard into the threaded filter front of the lens? The threads will hold the cardboard in place. I always keep and reuse packaging materials.

@anotherperspective3076 4 года назад

Thank you! I'd use the NiSi lens, because the raynox is too small (You'd need an additional adapter) and the magnification using the NiSi is also higher. On long lens the NiSi scores, on shorter focal length and macro lens the raynox got it's strength

@nathan_phua 4 года назад

@@anotherperspective3076 Thanks! Also, my DX 70-300mm has a 58mm filter thread. Do you mean that the NiSi's magnification is greater because it is paired with the long lens, or is it greater on all lenses? Given those two points, would the NiSi still better for my 70-300?

Hey, thats a good question... I have to try that by myself:) On long focal lnegth that will probably boost the magnification a little bit but I am not yet

@ShevillMathers Год назад

The NISI close-up optical device is a lens, not a filter, can we call it a lens that screws into the front of the main camera lens in the internal thread which can be used to attach either a filter or a close up lens. I am fussy about technical terminology, it is important for newcomers, it is less confusing to use the correct terminology. You are not alone in making this error, some of the best macro imagers I see on RU-vid make the same mistake. Thanks for sharing your experiences. Greetings from Tasmania Australia.🇦🇺🦘

@shadda Год назад

My problem with the raynox (i've had 2) is that it doesn't appear to be made of glass? It scratches super easy just from being stored in my bag. I have two big gouges across my current one and its done nothing but sit in the pocket of a camera bag by itself for 2 years.

I am going to buy a raynox dcr250 and try it on my new laowa apo 65mm 2x macro lens. Do you think it will work well? And what about working distance would it be reduced too much on such lens when using the dcr250? Currently it is about 7cm on 2x, lens to subject

@anotherperspective3076 4 года назад

I wished a had 1-2 more laowa macro lens;) Maybe I should change that some time. It will work, but I think it will be quite changellings because of the short facos distance and camera shake (because of the very high magnification). Do plan shoot insect handheld?

@fabriziocanale9768 4 года назад

Hello, I already own the Raynox 250 and I’d like to buy the NIsi macro lens to combine with my Sony 100-400; I’d use the this latter combo for shooting insects, like dragonflies, where you can’t get too close to your subject, while I’d keep the Raynox to use, sometimes, with the macro Sony 90mm when the subjects are still, e.g. butterflies in early mornings at the end of September and October. Is it worth buying? Thanks, Fabrizio

@anotherperspective3076 4 года назад

If you want to keep a large focusing distance while shooting at high magnification, this setup is really good: you can see the focusing distance at 4:00. Going up to 400mm will offer a even higher magnification, but I am not sure if the camera shake will be too high going handheld. I hope this helps;)

Yes you can get closer and the magnification gets from 1:1 to about 1,7:1 (+cropfactor)

Why not just use a set of extensions tubes? They can be used on any lens. Less costly also.

Around 3:08 you say that the Raynox keeps a lot of details and got more magnification, you say it won. But at 3:20 you say to buy the NiSi? I am confused. In addition to this: 1) Have you tried the NiSi or Raynox on a rever lens? 2) Have you compared the sharpness of a reverse lens with say extension tubes and the NiSi or Raynox with a macro lens? Probably the macro with the filter will have better IQ but by how much? Would it be worth the extra money? (macro + filter). Thanks
