Raynox DCR-250 2.5x Super Macro Lens Unboxing & Review

In this video we will unbox the Raynox DCR-250 and show you what the 2.5x super macro lens can do in our review. This inexpensive macro lens is a fantastic budget friendly option for macro photography. Use the Raynox DCR-250 2.5x super macro lens attached to almost any DSLR camera lens and get close up magnification of flowers, bugs, and more. Quick and easy, compared to removing specialty lenses from the camera body and replacing when out in the field. Great for beginners or those who just want to try out macro photography without a large investment in equipment. Adding the Raynox to your macro set-up can save you money over traditional, more costly macro lenses, and gives you a flexible, fast, and easy option for out in the field.

00:00 Introduction
00:21 Unboxing
02:08 Step Up or Down Rings (after trying the DCR250 on several lenses I found the easiest way to use it on oversized lenses was in fact to still use the clip on. If the lens was too big, I used the step down rings to get it to the size the clip on would fit.)
02:34 Review
05:45 Best Settings for Use (while I used it on a kit lens at 55mm, the recommended lens length is 105mm for this conversion lens)
