Simple and clear . †ur way of comparing both the filters . Thank you
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 âclutch shiftâ 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 âold schoolâ 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 havenât 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)
Thanks for this video. I have this exact Sony 90mm macro lens and camera combintation so Raynox, here I come!
Outstanding job! Your delivery was just so clear and succinct.
Gracias. Es un video muy divertido y esos fondos ampliados son impresionantes.
Sehr interessant. Danke fĂŒr das tolle Video.
Danke Sabine!:)
Very interesting and great images again!
Thank you;)
Interesting review, thanks for that
You are welcome:)
Excellent video ,thank you,I take my hat off to youđ
Thank you!
Great review!
Thank youđ
Thank you great stuff
You are welcome, thats great to hear;D
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.
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?
@@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.
Nice one bud, im gonna check the raynox out, đ
Thank you thats great to hear:D
Sick images again...:D
Thank you;D
Your photos were amazing đ€©
Thank you!;)
Very interesting, I'm going to see if one of them can be compatible with Tokina 100mm and Nikon 40mm. Thanks
Thank you!!
Thank YOU;D
thx for share . 7:29 this is epic , I love it soooooooooo much!!
professional solution:D
This presentation was very interesting. It also gave me some good ideas to try out. Thanks for the time you took to shoot this. Pierre
Thank You great you liked it
you all probably dont care but does any of you know a way to log back into an instagram account??
I stupidly forgot the login password. I love any help you can offer me.
@Avi Muhammad instablaster :)
@Benton Maxton Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and im trying it out now.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Benton Maxton it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my ass !
Love from Indiađźđł

Nice presentation!!
I got 55-210 zoom lens (on apsc body). Which would give more magnification, Nisi or Raynox?
Es wÀre schön wenn du vielleicht nochmal einen Retroadapter vorstellen könntest.Sehr informatives Video,. gut gemacht
Very nice đđđđđ
Thank youđ
What do you thiink the magnification ratio would be when you pair the 300mm lens with raynox?
Hello! What happens in your opinion and experience if I add NISI to extension tubes Meike with elecronic contacts 16+10 mm?
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
âIs the Raynox DCR-250 compatible with my Olympus PEN Mini camera and olympus 30mm macro lens?
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.
Great video! What about the Raynox vs NiSi on a 70-300mm lens? Which do you think is the better trade-off in terms of price & quality? Thanks in advance!
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
@@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?
Great vĂdeo and photos!!! If you allow me a question... What kind of paper have you got as a diffuser and how did you manage to keep it straight up? I thank you in advance and thank you for your vĂdeo, really helpfull!
Hey, I did use ordinary print paper which was clued to a sheet which I cut out of a plastic folder. Any sheet of thicker plastik will work.
@@anotherperspective3076 thank you so much for answering, very kind of you
When you were using both filter, why didn't you use step-down adaptors to fit the Raynox? Is that not possible? There isn't room to fix the Raynox in the step down ring?
I don't own such a step down adapter, I am also still ooking for a step down adapter to use Nisi on my 200-600mm lens which got a HUGE magnification. But I could not find such an adapter on the internet
Nice video! i got a 150-600 sigma lens and i would like to know if the NISI would work well with it. it have a 95 diameter
150-600 will work great. chandig the focal length helps to focus or change magnification. At 200mm it works best
What's the strength of the close-up filter u've used? This is key info and I haven't heard you include it
90mm 1:1 + Raynox = 1,9:1 // Tele at 300mm + Nisi = 1.5:1. I have shown images with a ruler (36mm uncroopped = 1:1) around 4:20
Hi, its nice to see that you use Sony mirrorless. Please can you advise if Raynox is better to use Sony 85mm 1.8 or Tamron 18-200?
Is one of those already a macro lens? As dont own those lens its difficult to answer;) it will just reduce the focus distance
@@anotherperspective3076 those are non-macro lens
What if i use two rynox with an 1x macro lens? (7 artisans 60mm)
I am not sure if you can stack them. Each acts as a magnification glass, the magnification would be higher and the focus distance would get shorter.
Did the focus distance change when the raynox 250 is attached to your sony 90mm? I have the same setup but still considering to buy or not to buy the raynox 250.
Yes you can get closer and the magnification gets from 1:1 to about 1,7:1 (+cropfactor)
Meaning the mininum focus distance of the 90mm is decreased so you need to get closer in order to focus?
@@naja1214 Yes, the focal length remains the same I guess, but you are able to focus closer
Hello, I already own the Raynox 250 and Iâd like to buy the NIsi macro lens to combine with my Sony 100-400;
Iâd use the this latter combo for shooting insects, like dragonflies, where you canât get too close to your subject, while Iâd 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
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;)
Another Perspective ok, thank you
@@fabriziocanale9768 you are welcome
Can i use raynox dcr 250 with sony 90mm macro lens? (cam sony a6000)
Yes (that my setup)
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
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?
@@anotherperspective3076 Yes mostly insects. I will see how to manage camera shake. I still need to upgrage from my a5100 to something better .
Hello, also got 65mm x2 and im curious how it works for you, is it viable to setup with dcr250?
@@Patrick-vi9xr I did not go for the raynox. instead I bought the 25mm 5x. it is a jewel !
@@lmatrix6626 You using it with a5100? What is the working space between lens and subject with that setup?
Can I use a dcr250 on a 30mm macro lens that has 1" of minimal working distance?
What diameter has your lens?
@@anotherperspective3076 Well it has 49mm but I would use a step up adapter. My question is what minimal focus distance will the macro lens have with the raynox to get the best magnification results
@@anotherperspective3076 Will the raynox shorten my minimal focus distance?
What's the focus like with nisi on the longer end. If I'm shooting some macro with a zoom lens and nisi closeup filter can I then shoot say a bird or wildlife or is the focus now lmited?
The focus distance is limited. Not useable for objects that are at 1m+ distance
@@anotherperspective3076 thankyou.
@@callumjohnson9433 You are welcome
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
Hey, oh damn... you are right, I made a mistake saying that, that makes so sence at all, sorry! Replace "nisi" with "raynox" at 3:20. I have not tested them on reverse lens.
@@anotherperspective3076 not a problem! Cheers I am enjoying your content.
I guess with a canon 100mm L IS 1:1 plus a Raynox I can get 2.5:1 magnification? Is this correct? Also how much magnification would I get with the addition of the NiSi?
Yes. 1:1 will be like 1,8 with raynox on ff camera. When you use it on a crop Sensor camera like apsc you will get about 2,5x
Oh you mean when you combine nisi and raynox?
@@anotherperspective3076 no. What I mean is:
100mm macro 1:1 with Raynox, then 100mm macro 1:1 with NiSi, then 100mm macro 1:1 with both Raynox an NiSi?
I f I understood 100mm 1:1 macro with Raynox is 1.8:1 (from above) on a FF. But Why? So this 250 I thought it was meant to be 2.5x in FF. Thanks
Does the raynox shorten the working minimal distance of a macro lens? I fear that my 1" working distance will get so small that I have to touch everything with the lens
Oh wow, what magnification got your lens? Yes, the raynox will even shorten that focus distance. So this might not be a good choise
@@anotherperspective3076 Sony 30mm f3.5 macro for aps-c e mount
Planning to purchase Raynox 250 for my close subject. I have Sony 20mm & 35mm 1.8 and Sony90mm 2.8 with SonyA73 body. I am professional wedding photographer. I do street photography frequently when i get my time. During this corona time i am exploring macro shots in my home as a point of intertest..Is raynox 250 will work for it. plz guide. waiting for your reply. thanks.
Yes, that will work, maye you get some vignietting, especially using a 20mm lens. Do you also have an apsc camera?
@@anotherperspective3076 No i dont have Apsc camera. but may be in future i can buy for my backup camera.
Why not just use a set of extensions tubes? They can be used on any lens. Less costly also.
Yeah... well... I should have added a third series where I combine the images with tubes. I have stopped using Tubes because I had a couple of dust issues (especially on my a6300, even though I use a rocket blower most of the time)
Extension tubes donât magnify as much on tele lenses, but work well on shorter lengths
Do u use auto focus with the 90mm
No always manual focus;)
Has anyone combined the nisi with the raynox? Also has anyone double stacked 2 of the nisi filter? What are the results?
Hm... I have combined both in this Video?đ
@@anotherperspective3076 I have no clue how I managed to miss the end of the video I have now watched it and made part of my question null and void lol. What are your thoughts on stacking 2x 77mm nisi closeups?
@@callumjohnson9433 Thats a good question. Unfortunately I do just own one version...sorry;)
Have you ever tried to combine both the re Raynox and the NISI? Wondering how the image would render in terms of details and magnification.
Yes, you can see that in this video at 7:22
Can i use it with nikkor 105 f2.8 macro? Plz help me.
Do you mean the NiSi or Raynox?
@@anotherperspective3076 raynox dcr 250
@@ABF47 as the nikkor got 62mm and the raynox supports 52 bis 67 mm the answer is: yes, that will work great ;)
@@anotherperspective3076 thank you very much
@@ABF47 you are welcome
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 CZcams make the same mistake. Thanks for sharing your experiences. Greetings from Tasmania Australia.đŠđșđŠ
just get a step down adaptor for the telephoto and the raynox works perfectly.
Yes obviously, with macro lens hood it will be better than pictures taken without macro lense hood, so it's better to take macro objects such as ants, beetles etc with a macro lens hood for better results
Nisi made in China, Raynox made in Japan.... It doesn't mean that quality of one is bad, but I trust more Japan made lens.
(BTW affiliated link for Nisi in description doesn't work)
That's not a bad way to get 4:1, considering macro lenses with that aren't cheap and microscope objectives might not be any easier
