Ps5 Controller Texture Close Up

Very satisfied with my new Up Close binoculars. They can see very far.

I wanted to experiment with macro photography on a budget.  I purchased three close lenses from B&H; the Opteka 10x High Definition II Professional (BH# OPT6210X), the  B+W Close-Up +4 (BH# BWCU462), and the B+W Close-Up +2 (BH# BWCU262).  The Opteka was the best of the three and produced excellent results.  It was the only lens that had almost no chromatic aberration, which was barely noticeable at the corners.  I’ve attached a test photo example.  The Opteka 10x  is a great accessory for my Panasonic DMC-FZ1000.  I shoot at 90 mm, f8.0, with the manual focus set to closet focus. With this setup, the plane of focus is 2.25 inches from the front of the filter ring and the sensor will capture 40mm (1.6 inches) on the long dimension.  The magnification on the sensor is approximately 0.33x the actual size of the object being photographed.  Therefore, a 3-inch-long object will be 1 inch long on the camera sensor.  You’ll get great detail when printing (full frame – no crop) at 12 x 18 inches on metal at 300 dots per inch.  The final display magnification is 11.4x, which makes flower close-ups look amazing!  The bottom line is that I can get great close-up photos of flowers and I’ve learned that I’d have to spend a lot more money to build a true macro system.   FYI, the chromatic aberration from both B+W Close-Up lenses was unacceptable so I returned them.  The chromatic aberration from the B+W +4 was so strong that I couldn’t correct it in Lightroom.  The chromatic aberration from the B+W +2 was less but it started near the center.

Although I own three dedicated macro lenses (two capable of shooting 1:1 and one capable of shooting 2:), I bought this NiSi 58mm Close-Up NC lens kit to increase the close focusing distance of my Voigtlander 35mm and 50mm and my Sony Zeiss 24mm--all of which have 49mm filter threads. What appealed to me about this optic is the apochromatic design, which reduces lateral chromatic aberration (bokeh fringing), which ruins macro shots. So far, after several uses, I have achieved good results and thus decided to invest in the NiSi 77mm Close-Up, as well. With filter attached, one can still autofocus on when shooting near-macro shots; however, the lens will not be able to acquire focus outside of close-focusing distances with the Close-Up filter attached. The filter threads are apparently aluminum, not brass; however, I haven't had any issues with seizing (use anti-seize lubricant if you ever have this issue, by the way).

The R1C1 Wireless Close-Up Speedlight System allows you to totally own the light when shooting macros and close-ups. Doesn't matter what the sunlight is doing. They overpower the sun at close range - giving you luscious black and dark backgrounds so you don't need to perform digital magic in order for your subject to stand out. ISO 100, f/16, 1/200 second at 4 to 6 inches (10 - 15 cm) - no problem! Yes, a bit of weight at the far end of the macro lens - if you hand hold. On a tripod, with or wighout a focussing rail, they do nothing but provide even, smooth, wonderful light.

Very useful when doing Close Up/Macro on flowers. It tends to get breezy at times.

Really great ring. Is it worth the extra dollars? Up to you, but I do think that it has a great texture on the side and really appreciate the sturdy feel of it.

As in the headline, it's a great Xbox One controller, as expected. The color scheme and texture are where the controller shines. The turquoise is really pretty and it stands out attractively compared to the standard black. And it's textured with a subtle pebbled rubber situation, which cuts down on the clammy-hand feeling you get from smooth plastic. Well, I do, anyway. By the way, I paired this with a PC and it's as seamless as if I were on a console

No longer have a dedicated Macro lens but now these extension tubes allow me to try Macro/Close-Up photography with other lens.

I bought the B&W 67mm Close-Up +3 SC NL 3 Lens to use on my Canon Powershot SX40. Although the SX40 has macro capability, the macro focusing is limited primarily to the wide angle end of the zoom and working distance limited lighting options when shooting macro. The 67mm Close-Up +3 Lens allows a greater working distance for lighting and for shooting live subjects. After researching, I selected the +3 diopter as providing a reasonable magnification without needing to purchase and carry a 3 or 4 lens kit. I selected the B&W as it was offered as a single lens and was coated. It seems to work well with the SX40 and I have not noticed any appreciable degradation in IQ. I bought an extra Canon 67mm adapter just for the Close-Up lens and leave it attached so I can quickly install or remove the lens with just a quarter turn of the Canon adapter.

Love this player . It is my close friend during Stand Up Paddle sessions , Bike Rides and running . I became addicted to make sports listen to my classic rock . I have mine from some years and no one problem . Long battery life and good capacity .
