ggiacomoo 0 Posted January 2, 2018 (edited) anyone has tested / reviewed / tried (of found some experience) this lens? http://www.wetpixel.com/articles/inon-announces-ucl-67-close-up-lens http://www.inon.jp/products/lens/ucl67m67/top.html it should be very interesting for me... it should be +15 diopters and quite small and light it sounds me like smc1 alternative... i've got camera d610 (full frame) + 105mm (now i'm using subsee+10 wetlens)but i would like to see some real shots and opinions... about color fringing, border sharpnes, easy to focus etc etc nobody know something?

Architeuthis 156 Posted January 5, 2018 Hi Phil, Can you compare the ULC-67 to Nauticam's CMC-1 in terms of magnification and optical quality? Wolfgang Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paolobl65 55 Posted January 16, 2018 (edited) I use INON UCL-67 with Canon 7D + Canon 60 mm macro I found this combination very good : great magnification ( 10,5 mm fill the long side frame on Canon 7D , so considering 22,5 mm sensor , it means more than x2,1 optical magnification ) , enough working distance even at max magnification , very sharp and limited cromatic aberration . Better using with manual focus to be sure you get max magnification , anyway autofocus work well enough . here same samples ( 2000 x 3000 ): https://www.flickr.com/photos/paolobl65/34388319285/in/dateposted-public/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/paolobl65/39688545591/in/dateposted-public/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/paolobl65/36734898841/in/dateposted-public/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/paolobl65/34226525471/in/dateposted-public/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/paolobl65/36813608462/in/dateposted-public/ hope this can help Paolo Edited January 16, 2018 by paolobl65 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
