The multiplier lens elements are precision crafted of specially formulated low-dispersion optical-grade glass and ground to the most demanding standards.

Aquatica +10 Wet Close up lens

$229.95

To go in the realms of super macro, one has to address methods of adding magnification to a standard macro lens. This can be done in a multitude of ways, but in underwater photography, the most practical and frequent mean of doing so is to add a close up lens in front of the lens. This close up lens can be of internal or of external type, doing so internally limits the photographer range of subjects for the duration of the dive.
