Inon UCL-165 M67 Underwater Close-up Macro Lens +6

Inon UCL-165M67 Close-up Lens

The UCL-165M67 is high magnification close-up lens providing 165mm focal length (+6 diopter) where 165mm shooting distance from lens surface when camera’s focus position is set to infinity. Using minimum focusing distance will shorten minimum focus distance allowing you to get closer to a subject enabling high magnification close-up photography.

Dual use underwater / land and usable with all zoom range. Even at same shooting distance, it is easy to capture a subject at desired size by adjusting zoom setting.

The lens construction is 2 elements in 2 groups with high quality optical glass with inner coating to suppress optical aberrations more effectively and bring out optimal performance of combined master lens comparing to a lens using just one double-convex element.

The lens body has screw mount on its front end to stack other UCL-165M67 for even higher magnification macro imaging. Off course the UCL-330 can be stacked as well. The threaded part has a slit to drain water from gap between two lenses to easily separate combined lens underwater.

Highly versatile screw type "M67 Mount" compatible.

The UCL-165M67 is directly screwed on a housing which has M67 lens ring. For a housing which does not have M67 lens ring, the UCL-165M67 is attached via dedicated "M67 Mount Base" or "M67 Lens Adapter Base". For "28LD Mount Base」compatible housing, the UCL-165M67 is attached on "28LD Mount Base" via "M67-LD Mount Converter for UCL-330/165M67".

(*1) Optional "M67-LD Mount Converter for UCL-330/165M67" is necessary.

Tips:

[When using a close-up lens]

*Depending on housing, shooting distance, angle of view etc., the lens may block the built-in flash light from illuminating the entire image. In such cases it is recommended to shoot with an external strobe or flashlight.

*A close-up lens provides maximum magnification at zoom telephoto end.

*Generally, a close-up lens shortens the camera’s close focusing distance. With this product, you can place your camera closer to a subject, achieving a larger image. On the other hand, depending on zoom or aperture setting, it may be more difficult to obtain complete depth of field on a distant subject.

*Stacking multiple lenses may cause vignetting at zoom wide end. As you stack more lens, focusing distance gets short and depth of field gets shallow as well.
