zerocool22 Posted February 23, 2016 Author Share Posted February 23, 2016 They do look razor sharp, but they kinda have that blue flare going on, any others recommendations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Edward Weir Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Marumi 77mm 77 DHG Macro +3 330 Achromat Achromatic Close up Lens. Super sharp and very nice quality. If you want to have a nice close up. I use it with Baby Hypergonar in picture below. http://www.amazon.com/Marumi-Macro-Achromat-Achromatic-Filter/dp/B003VHN1SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zerocool22 Posted February 23, 2016 Author Share Posted February 23, 2016 Thanks, is the +3 not a bit excessive? as the tokina 72mm is only +0.4? How well would this match up with a 2X anamorphot(kowa bell howell + taking lens canon 100mm f2.0)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Edward Weir Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 You said 77mm. The Tokina 72mm is amazing and worth the money for a great low power diopter. I own a +0.25, +0.4, +1, +2.6, +3 and +10. They all have different purposes. You should do yourself a favoir and save money by getting a Rectilux Core DNA variable diopter or SRL Magic Rangefinder. Then you would only need +2 or higher for closeups or macro. The more you put in front of a 2x anamorphic, the longer your taking lens will need to be to avoid vignetting.

Thuy Pham Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 anyone have experience w Canon 500D? I have a Century 1.33x anamorphic mounted in front of Canon 24-105. I put a vintage Canon 72mm diopter in front and theres a vignetting wider than 35mm. Would 77mm diopter be different? Without the diopter at 24mm theres a small vignette but at 35mm no vignette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been using one for a very long time for my extreme closeups. It's a +2 achromat, and quality is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zerocool22 Posted March 6, 2016 Author Share Posted March 6, 2016 What about the kood diopters, are they good? I cannot seem to find any review on them. http://www.benl.ebay.be/itm/KOOD-77MM-CLOSE-UP-LENS-SET-OF-4-CASE-1-2-4-10-DIOPTER-CLOSE-UP-LENSES-/191425900279?hash=item2c91df6ef7:g:6T4AAOSwiCRUdHKf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
