SKU CH-DCV5-VEGRT

A 77mm double-element achromatic close-up lens that changes the closest focusing distance to 500mm (19.7") for macro photography with reduced aberrations

  • Achieve detailed macro shots with a 77mm double-element achromatic design
  • Reduce distortion and aberrations for sharp close-up images
  • Fit 77mm filter threads on lenses such as 70-200mm f/2.8
  • Change minimum focus distance to 500mm (19.7 inches) for closer shooting
  • Durable construction withstands frequent use in varied environments

What it is and who it is for

The ProOPTIC 77mm Close-up Lens 500D is a double-element achromatic filter that threads onto 77mm filter threads. It changes the closest focusing distance from infinity to 500mm, approximately 19.7 inches, enabling detailed close-up photography without a dedicated macro lens. It suits photographers who occasionally need macro capability on telephoto or standard zoom lenses.

Installation ease and common issues

The lens screws directly onto any 77mm front thread or onto smaller lenses via step-up rings. No tools or electrical connections are required. Some users report that manual focus delivers more consistent results than autofocus, particularly in challenging lighting or with low-contrast subjects.

Practical limits of the close-up filter standard

The 500D designation fixes the maximum working distance at 500mm, so you cannot focus farther away while the filter is attached. Optical quality depends on the host lens; the achromatic design reduces chromatic aberration but cannot eliminate all edge softness or distortion inherent to the primary lens. It adds glass surfaces that may increase flare in strong backlight.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the 500D close-up lens is working correctly after attaching it to my 77mm filter thread?

The closest focusing distance should shift from infinity to 500 mm (about 19.7 inches), letting you frame small subjects sharply at that range.

What comes in the box with the 77mm Close-up Lens 500D and what must I purchase separately?

The lens itself is supplied; any step-up rings (for example to fit a 70 mm or 50 mm thread) or a compatible host lens such as a 70-200 mm f/2.8 are separate purchases.

Which version of the ProOPTIC 77mm close-up lens should I choose for the best optical quality?

The 500D model uses a double-element achromatic design, unlike the single-element 250D/500 series, giving sharper macro results with less distortion.
