Customer Reviews on Canon 72mm 500D Close-up Lens
Review by Cesar Medina, 04/01/2008, Customer Rating:

This is an excellent alternative for those who don't have the budget for a real macro lens. It's also good for people who don't want to carry a lot of kit and for people like me who don't like to switch lenses.
I use the 500D with my D80 and the 18-200mm Nikkor zoom lens. The magnification ratio is good but not amazing but the few test images I've taken so far are clear and a lot sharper than the 18-200 used on it's own.
I highly recomend this lens to anyone who wants a quick and easy way to get into macro photography.
