What is the minimum distance at which this lens can focus?

It's a 50 mm fixed lens. I am able to get fairly close to subject and focus, but not macro

The closest focusing distance for this lens is 30 cm. The closest focusing distance for the Canon EF 180mm f/3.5 Macro is 48 cm. Both lenses allow longer distances, to infinity. It's the closest distance that gives you the macro capability. You refer to a 160mm lens. I don't think Canon makes a lens with that focal length. Perhaps you mean the 180mm macro.

This lens has a wider view so you see more. It's a little heaver and bulkier than the 85mm, but you can stand much closer to an object that you want to have in focus (12 inches) as opposed to the 85mm (about 3-4 feet).

Hi Decha, Minimum focus distance for the Sony RX100 is rated at 5cm (2 inches). Hope this helps! Keep shooting ~ zkot

Looks like focus down to 4 to 5 feet. Has diopter adjustment. I can focus without my glasses on if i adjust diopterveyepiece. That said, i would not buy that model again. Prefer the green screened nightvision. IR works but not at great distance. Price is good, though.

Minimum focus distance is about 11 inches for the stock Nikon lens if I remember right so if you get any closer you wont get a clear shot. If you want to shoot closer look into a micro/macro lense lens.

This lenses is meant for distance - I believe min is 12'. If you're looking for everyday photos in the home or close distance you don't need this lens. This lens is great for landscape, wildlife etc...

Best estimation is that the magnifying glass focuses at between 1 and 1 1/2 inches from the object being magnified.

I can get within 12 inches with that lens and a tripod is NOT a must if you have a steady hand or somewhere else to rest your camera on while focusing.

I believe the specs are correct - the lens will focus about 4 inches from the sensor plane (marked on the top right of the body) That's right about the front surface of the lens, which may be the reference. I have a 1A filter on mine, and the lens will go a little blurry if my subject is on the lens, but ease back just a bit and in it comes.

Since this is an f/1.4 lens, with a minimum focus distance of 45cm, the depth of field can be very shallow.

I can close focus at 7 feet with a 1/4 twist of the black ring near the objective. The little knob is where you can mount it to a tripod.The slider from "15x to 55" is near the eyepiece and just slides 1/5 turn easily and smoothly. It is really 10x to 25x.

About six inches. Probably a little less. One of the huge benefits of this wonderful little lens!

Yes there should be a small screw next to the lens..tightening and loosening should focus it for you

It appears the focal distance is about 10-12 feet; you will be unable to see any clear image nearer than that distance.

Under my experience, 6 degree lens by 25 ft. distance and the result is small than 4 ft. diameter.So 15 ft. away means "Impossible".

Different lenses have different minimum focus distances. The minimum focus distance of an AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55 mm f/3.5-5.6G VR lens is 0.28 m or 0.92 ft. (a little over 11 inches; this information appears on the lens as &#8734;-0.28 m/0.92 ft.). AF-S NIKKOR 50mm F1.4G AF-S NIKKOR 50mm F1.4G Minimum Focus Distance The minimum focus distance is the shortest distance at which a lens can focus. In the case of digital SLR cameras, the distance to the subject is measured from the focal plane mark on the camera body, not from the front of the lens. The minimum focus distance of an AF-S NIKKOR 50 mm f/1.4G is 0.45 m (about 1.5 feet or 18 inches; the minimum focus distance is shown in the lens focus distance display).
