Raynox DCR-150 Macro Conversion (Electronics)

Customer Review

I bought this macro-intent at an affordable entry into the macro photography to venture. Before that, I already tested the Tamron 90 / 2.8 USD which me but was too expensive for the result.

The Raynox DCR-150 Macro-intent, however, has disappointed me in every aspect.

- Enormous vignetting on my Sal 18-135 lens with a 62 mm diameter, for the intent is to be suitable according Raynox (!).
From absolutely useless (18-90mm) due to a completely black-rimmed field of vision to strong vignetting (90-135mm) in the corners.

- Then there are the reflections occurring sporadically (yellow / orange tint) that occur to me, depending on attachment of intent on a big part of the picture. These make the picture even less useful. Partially I could reduce this by changing the mounting position.

- Which brings us to the next point would be: The attachment is flawed. Of course, these are an adapter which will fit on a variety of lenses, but on my lens held the mounting though, but I had a couple of times the adapter newly put up this finally sat halfway centered on the lens. How you want to achieve as an ordinary optical quality is beyond me.

- It gets to or is likely to result from the already described by me problems that I encountered while comparing two photos, one with, one without Raynox adapter (each maximum magnification at 135mm), by cropping the photo without adapter better picture quality could achieve the same section as in the with the Raynox.

I invite Photos times with high so that you can make yourself an idea.
1. Photo: Without Raynox, heavily cropped.
2. Photo: With Raynox, slightly cropped.

I was disappointed but the Raynox DCR-150 intent all along the line and goes back to Amazon.
Therefore 1/5
