Nauticam SMC-3

[bghazzal]

A CMC-3 would be nice as well. Something to keep up with AOI's UCL-900 Pro for instance.
Their UCL-90 Pro is also fantastic, bright and already offers a stronger magnification than the CMC-1.

As much as I love my CMC-1, let's hope there's some movement on the the CMC line as well, for us little people 😁

October is coming to end soon, has this started shipping yet?

Everywhere i checked still says 1-2 weeks until shipping. I was hoping to get this for my next trip, but doesnt look like it.

Same here. Won't be delivering before 15 November. Was hoping to use one on an upcoming trip.

I've been shooting it since May. Haven't used my SMC-1 since, although the performance is very, very similar. 

 

 

 

 

I like it very much, although the other products are more interesting to me. 

What the products are more interesting to you?  I am looking for a super macro diopter.

It is great to see compatibility for M43 lenses!!! 

I had a look but cannot find what the actual working distance of the Oly 60mm + SMC-3 is.

Would be great to compare it with the Oly 60mm + CMC-1 but I am assuming the SMC-3 would be more flexible.  

The SMC-3 has less power than both the CMC-1 and CMC-2, the data is in the port chart.  I would consider the CMC-2 before the SMC-3 if you want something with a little less power as the CMC has slightly longer working distance.
