The Heliopan Bay 50 Close-Up +3 Lens is a convex diopter designed to decrease the minimum focus distance of any lens in order to produce a shorter working distance for close-up photography. Available in varying strengths, close-up lenses also feature Bay 50 front filter threads for combining two or more filters to fine-tune results.

The front and rear surfaces of the filter both feature a single anti-reflection coating. Each coating helps to increase light transmission by reducing reflections, scattered light, and ghosting. Additionally, they offer protection to the filter substrate while helping to keep the glass clean for longer than uncoated glass.

This Heliopan filter is constructed from Schott glass for increased optical clarity and color fidelity. It features a brass filter ring for durability as well as jamming prevention.

Q: 9. I plan to use R1C1 photographing portraits with Nikon Z lens 24-70 2.8s which requires 82mm adapter ring but it is not included into the kit. What are my options given I have not found an adapter ring of that size?

A: Unfortunately there is no adapter to use the Nikon R1C1 Wireless Close-Up Speedlight System directly on a 82mm thread. The best option would be to use a 82-77mm Step-Down Ring like this Sensei, BH #SESDR8277 (https://bhpho.to/3yUwwcT). Keep in mind this may cause vignetting as this is a smaller diameter than the front element of the lens.
