Close-up diopter +2 is an 82 mm threaded filter-type lens. With the lens set to infinity, it focuses at approx. 50 cm; closer settings focus even closer.
Screws directly onto the lens or into a matte box adapter. Diopters can be stacked – the strengths add up, with the stronger one closer to the lens. With high strengths and stacking, expect color fringing at the edges; slight stopping down helps.
