Diopters

5 posts
  1. I'm looking a for set of Diopters for a Nikon 105, does anyone know of a web site where they can be ordered?

  2. The first time i searched to buy diopters I couldn't find any.

     

    Many places, such as B&H, call them close-up filters rather than diopters.

  3. Other folks have provided useful information on where to buy.

     

    Most people find the Nikon 4T to offer the best performance/magnification on a 105. Riccardo Polini has an excellent page with working distance/reproduction ratios with various lenses. I'm not sure how a flat-port would affect these. If anything you'd probably have a little more room. Also, if you are using a APS sensor Nikon, you'll obviously get higher magnification.

     

    I have used the 4T in conjunction with the 105 and found it excellent. Another popular choice is a Woody's diopter on the front of the port (more flexibility) or a 1.4TC behind the lens.
