im looking to purchase this macro snap on. i have a panasonic 14-44mm and a canon 50mm fd lenses. will this snap on fit any of them?

Yes it will fit but I did not like it as it was not really secure and the extended arms got in the way. Thankfully the clasp unscrews and I got an adapter ring for the Panasonic 14mm-45mm lens - 52mm to 43mm and the macro lens fits perfectly making it an excellent addition to my macro photographic possibilities. I highly recommend going this way.

Their website states that it fits a 52mm to 67mm filter size. It fits all of my lenses that fall in this range, including my Canon 50mm, and it also fit my old point and shoot Canon SX10IS with 20X optical zoom.

most likely. I just measured the inside distance between the "spring clips" and it's about 62-63 mm. I use mine on a Canon fixed lens that uses 58mm lens cap. I added an inexpensive ring adapter so the Raynox would have plenty of room to hang onto but that's probably not necessary. Hope this helps you!

As long as the front threads on those lenses are somewhere between ~40-58mm then the clip should work fine. You can always use step-up/step-down rings on smaller/larger lenses. For what it is worth, it seems like the effect is when used with shorter effective focal lengths is fairly weak with the 4/3 and Nikon lenses that I've tried. When used with a Canon 100mm macro the magnification is fantastic.

I only use this adapter on my 18 to 55 lens, and I got some excellent results. So it should fit just fine with a 14-44mm.

I don't know about the Panasonic one, but I can tell you that it works fairly good with Canon 50 mm which has a 52mm diameter, I also tested it with a Tamron 18-270, it has a 62mm diameter and also works fine.

Shane, I have mine on a 50mm 1.8 canon lens. It has a 52mm diameter filter ring so the 52mm cap is right.Look on the lens a find the diameter and then find the proper sized cap.

Yes I have the same lens, and you wil get peaking feature, I even used it with the Minolta Bellows 1V for Macro Work with the 50mm 3.5 MD Lens with my Panasonic GH2 Camera, it worked without any problem.

Yes. This will fit any EOS with a APS-C crop sensor. So far, I'm in love with this lens. It take real sharp pictures, mostly when stepped down to f4, but at 2.8 it still shines. The OS is a nice feature, but what really stands out in the Macro. Zoomed out to 70mm I can get about 1-2 inches from my subject and the AF snaps into focus quick.

I had a Canon 50mm 2.5 macro ,it is real reliable, it is an older lens, very sharp also great for portrait work it creates a soft bokeh.

No, this lens is a portrait lens, it's miminum focus distance is 50cm (about 20"). For macro the olympus 60mm or the panasonic 45mm will be much better

It comes with a bunch of sizes of attachments that screw into the front if a lense. I have a t5i with a canon 100mm macro lense and it fit that lense fine. It should fit most if not all canon lenses.

I attached my macro lens to my Nikon kit 18-55mm lens. Just be sure to remove any filters you have on the lens first, otherwise the macro won't be able to attach. I think this is why the lenses are so cheap. You're getting the heavy duty lens functions (like autofocus, etc) from your primary lens, then the macro is just a fun add-on. If you only want a macro without having to attach it to another lens, you have to pay a lot more. I'm sure you also get more quality out of it, but given the price of this lens, you can still get some amazing pictures out of it.

I believe it only fits 52 mm. However I did not think this is a "true" macro lens and will probably be returning it. Do more research before u buy!

I use it for both my 70-200 2.8 is ii and my 100 2.8 macro with hood installed....70-200 f4 will not be too loose.

This collar won't fit either macro lens you mention. It's only for the longer, heavier telephoto zoom lenses.
1370483
Yes, it does fit the EFS 18-55mm lens. However, the effective macro isn't astonishing.

Firstly, Polly, I want to apologize for the extreme delay in answering your question. I attempted to do a little research to see if the cap would fit the size lens you mentioned but I wasn't able to find anything useful and then I forgot to respond. And so I'm afraid my feedback is quite useless because I don't know. But some of the other responses seem to say that it will fit so I hope their feedback helped and good luck!

I don't have enough information yet....what other lenses do you own, and what camera would you be shooting with? Are you the main photographer? Are you bringing lights or at least a high(er) powered flash unit? This is a great lens for macro use, but with a maximum aperture of f/2.8 this cannot be considered a fast lens at all. While a 50mm lens is fantastic for shooting in a more photojournalistic style, you will probably want something a little longer for portraits (especially if you're using a full-frame digital or film camera). Please respond with what camera(s) you'll be using and what other lenses you own and I'll give you more detail

Mine was ordered specifically for a 58mm lens and fits great as well as works great. The quality is good when used with another macro lens such as the kit 18-55mm however it will be unable to produce images with a 75-300 mm lens these are the only two I have so it may work with others. As far as MM you need to look at what the manufacturer states it is compatible with. Like I said I bought mine for a 58mm. I hope this answers you question, good luck.

I went on line and looked at the 100mm L macro since I don't own one. I really don't know if it will fit or not. It looks like it would, but I can't tell you for sure. I guess try it and see. If it doesn't work you can always send it back.

The fittings will mount the fd to your cannon eos camera... however I urge you to go with a different brand. This adapter had the element too far from the sensor, resulting in a macro extension tube opposed to a lens adapter. Go with fotodiox or kodak and your lens will be ready to go. I recommend buying a different adapter for each lens if you're shooting on the go.
