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.

This is a good learning tool. The 58mm thread size was perfect for my old kit lens, but now I've moved on and probably will not buy another lens with that thread size.
As far as quality goes, it is good considering the price. It takes a very steady hand to get super close up photos, and due to the way you focus (by moving closer or farther from the subject), you can't really use a tripod. I have taken a few pictures that turned out ok with this attachment, but for the most part, I think someone who wants to do a lot of macro work would be better served getting a dedicated macro lens. Depends on what you want to do and how much you want to spend, I suppose.
This piece also works as a 10x magnifier for pictures or slides or anything, so I guess it will still come in handy for that.
This lens comes with protective covers and some basic instructions.

I absolutely love is 10x HD Macro lens...I have photographed many macro flowers and insects... and they came out fantastic..
Took a little getting used to the moving in and out to focus properly but it was worth the little effort you had to put into it..The image was so detailed you simply would not believe.....I would suggest using it with your smaller lens (ie. 18-55mm lens). I also own another macro/telephoto lens but I still can't the details as with the 10x HD lens.
I would recommemd this additonal lens to anyone who might be considering purchasing... have NO reservations... you won't be disapointed at all.

This lens has served me well while learning about macro photography. It is compatible with many different cameras and lenses and can be sued with several different sized step up / step down rings that will enable it to be attached to most any filter thread size.
