On the Aperture Control/Enabler ring there is a threaded side that is 52mm.

What size of the reversing ring did you buy? If you bought the ring with 58mm threads, that won't work with the 50mm 1.8 lens because that lens has a 52mm filter size. The macro adapter screws onto the "normal" end of the lens where you would usually attach a UV or polarizing filter. Then you flip the entire lens around backward and attach it to your camera body so the lens is mounted to the camera with the side that usually faces the camera now facing the object you want to photograph. But you have to buy the reversing ring that has 52mm threads for that lens.

Nikon makes several 50mm f/1.4 lenses. The f/1.4 D and the plain (old) f/1.4 lenses both have working aperture rings on them and they will work with the reverse ring. Just understand that everything is manual - you will have to manually set the aperture and shutter speed for your exposure. The 50mm f/1.4g lens has no aperture ring and if I am correct, it will work, however, you will have to make all your shots at the smallest aperture setting and then you only have control of the shutter speed. Hope this helps.

The flash is designed to fit 58mm and smaller filter size. If you try and adapt to 62mm or 67mm, you are going to get vignetting (fall-off of light causing darkening of the image at the edges and/or corners.) You need either a larger ring flash for those larger lenses, or to use another flash setup-- a ring light, most probably, for Macro, or a standard flash or 2 or 3 if you are doing portraiture. It seems odd that you would have three different macro lenses, so I'm guessing that you wanting to use the light for both macro (probably your 52mm filter size lens) and for portraiture with your other lenses. Might be best to go with separate flash set-ups for macro and portraiture. Making a lot of assumptions here, but trying to address your concerns. Good luck.

I bought the 52mm kit for my (35mm f/1.8G AF-S DX) lens and the cap works with or without filters. My bet is it will for you too.

For my N7000 I have the Nikon 18-105mm and 55-300mm lenses.I am unsure which macro lens to get.I am interested in documents photos as well as the usual insects,birds,flowers close-ups and will appreciate advice on the pros and cons of the various macro lenses ,Nikor and others,that might be suitable.

The 52mm refers to the diameter of the threaded portion of the lens. The size should be printed on the lens itself or even the lens cover. It will fit on the 18-55 kit lens.

It must have been a typo on their part. The 52mm lenses fit just fine on my Nikon D3200 which has a 52mm lens. I have no problem with them. :-)

This 58 Macro fits on to a 52MM lens. I just did it with my Canon Rebel 300D, an older first model of the Rebel series; which is what I am collecting at this time. Thank you for your kindness.

In looking up this lens, I found the Nikon 18-105 lens, and it appears to take a 67 mm size snap-on lens. This information is based on Amazon's webpage for this lens: "Nikon 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6 AF-S DX VR ED Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras...It includes LC-67 67mm snap-on front lens cap." So I don't think that this size 52 would work for you (but didn't see a size 18-125 lens).

its not about the camera it is about the lens and yes it will work on your 18-55 but you will also need the reverse mount ring to mount it to the camera. you put this on the back of the lens and the reverse mount ring on the front and you put it on backwards to create a manual focus macro lens. the size you want to look for is 52mm and you will find that on the inside of the front cap of your lens.

I don't know! I have Nikkor 18-140 mm lens with 67mm cap diameter. Find the diameter written on your cap. Then ask directly to the seller or someone else. But one thing is that UV filter is good but not the CPL one.Thanks!

well the 52 millimeter and the 67 millimeter sizes are actually on the outside of the lens diameter now is what you have to know is the T mount adapter for a Nikon is what you will need, I have used it on my 3100 on my 3000 and my 5100 and it worked beautifully for all of them but must be used in manual mode you have to basically set your ISO and your shutter speed

Nope! It's actually 52mm filter thread so the lens cap and filter requirements are different. EXTRAORDINARY lens though, quite a lot better than most 18-55 lenses. It's a must-have lens for the EOS M.

Hi Enrique, I wish I had a clear cur answer. I use some new lenses and some 'E" series lenses made by Nikon. The adapters are different on each. The E series lenses were made in the early 1980's and are a GREAT value however their mounts are different than the 18-55. Sorry I cannot be of more help. Maybe go the B&H photo and see if they have a close-up of your lens and compare that with the 18-55? Best, Haji Mahmood

Check the filter size. It is specified by "" (the Cyrillic character phi). Each lens should have a number in millimeters following this symbol. That number is the filter size the lens will accept. I'm pretty sure that lens takes 52mm filters, so no the filter in question will be to large. Double check on the lens itself, it will be marked. On a unrelated note I buy all my filters " 77mm" then I use step up rings for every lens. For example my 35mm 1.8 dx which accepts " 52mm" has a 52mm-77mm step up ring. My 105 2.8 VR macro which is " 62mm" has a 62mm- 77mm step up ring. That was my 77mm fits both lenses eliminating the need to buy multiple copies of the same filter at a different thread size. Goja makes great step up rings for about 4$. I have one on every lens I own that isn't already " 77mm", but that's my personal preference. Hope this helps, Cheers

Yes it should fit Your d5100 as long as it has the 52mm screw in filters work, the the lens will work on Your camera!! Quality of the lens is amazing for the price! You can also separate the lens for macro close up photos! It's A great value for the money....
