Leica Cine MacroLux +2 Diopter Close-Up Lens for DSLR & Mirrorless Cameras - Perfect for Macro Photography, Jewelry & Watch Shooting, Product Detail Capturing

The secret of the Leica Cine MacroLux is not just what happens in focus, but what happens out of focus, using the Cine MacroLux on wide or mid-range focal length lenses throws the background further out of focus and accentuates beautiful elements like focus fall off and bokeh.

The modern lens design of the Leica Cine MacroLux creates a high performance optic with no perceptible light loss, spherical aberrations, color fringing or centering issues. The custom coatings offer it a high resolution and contrast along with a color temperature matched to the natural, neutral look of the Leica Summilux-C and Summicron-C lenses, although it also pairs well with other lenses, including anamorphics.

Macro Work
Decrease the minimum focal distance on longer lenses for a greater range of close up and macro work by magnifying the image relative to the sensor. The longer the focal length, the greater the MacroLux effect.

Narrow Field of View
Narrow the field of view and push the camera nearer to the subject in naturally tight spaces or when lights and support gear have to be close to the subject as well.

Background Separation
Create more separation between the subject and the background on wider lenses by throwing the background further out of focus in a smooth and natural way. This is great for when you have to shoot at a slower stop or in a space where the background may seem too close to the subject such as interviews or other field work.

Out of Focus Elements
Accentuate the natural bokeh of the lens and further soften and blend out of focus elements creating more of a cinematic look and feel.

Stackable
Increase the effect by stacking multiple Leica Cine MacroLux diopters together and still use standard matte boxes.
