CLOSE-UP & MACRO
Close-up lenses
The simplest and lowest cost way of getting closer to your subject, and suitable for
any lens with a filter thread.
Wide apertures should be avoided, but in any case a small stop will be needed to
get sufficient depth of field, and as a result loss of performance is scarcely detectable.
The more expensive two element types from the camera manufacturers rival results
from true macro lenses.
Use this chart to help select the lens strength which is right for the working
distance you want. The figures are cm with a lens set at 50mm.

Canon close-up lenses
Doublet construction, meaning two
elements, so of extremely high quality.
The number indicates the closest focusing
distance in mm with the lens set to
infinity.

Novoflex EOS reverse adaptor
Unique to Novoflex, this reverse adaptor
fits all Canon EOS cameras and retains full
lens functions, including AF (although it’s
of minor importance), and TTL metering.
It also enables extremely high magnifications
to be achieved with prime or zoom
lenses.
For example, a 28–105mm lens
reversed will give a range of magnifications
from 1:7 at the 105mm end to 2.8:1
at the 28mm end, with superb quality –
which is much more flexible than a typical
macro lens. Greater magnifications may be
achieved when used with a bellows unit.
The adaptor comes with a 58mm thread,
and can be adapted with stepping rings.
NVREV £189.00
Reversing rings
A camera lens becomes a superb macro
lens when reversed on the body, giving a
very high magnification. Older camera
bodies which can meter in stop-down
aperture-priority mode can use these
simple adaptors, so, sorry all you EOS
users. . . .
