I bought this item as a cheap way of exploring the world of close-up (i.e., "near-macro range") photography with a digital SLR. I went on to buy a dedicated macro lens, which I LOVE. The difference between what I could capture with this close-up lens on my 35mm f/2 or 50mm lens, versus what the lens could do on its own, was pretty minimal to non-existent, from what I could tell.
It is a high-quality, well constructed piece of optics, perhaps a bit pricey for what it is, but it appears to definitely fill a need. I'm giving the item 4 stars because of its high quality construction and also because it apparently does do what it promises to do. I cannot comment on how the product works with one of the many compatible Canon P&S cameras.
I think this close-up lens might work better for the A series cameras, or perhaps in conjunction with other close-up lenses and/or other tricks of the macro photography trade. For me, it wasn't what I needed, and so I sent it back. I did do some homework before purchasing, but should have taken it to heart when I read other reviews stating that it really doesn't allow you to get close enough to explore digital SLR close-up photography, at least not when used alone on a non-macro lens.
It just didn't fit my needs, and that is why I was glad I purchased it from Amazon. It stays on my camera nearly all the time.
The lens is a great addition to my camera as I plan on doing lots of closeup work this summer and I need a small camera for that task.
I bought this to take pictures of small artificial flies (sizes 18-20). The pictures came out great.One can see all the details of the flies.
Only problem is I live in Holland and have to have things sent to my daughter in the US and then forwarded since you don't ship overseas. Any hope that may change in the future.
The Canon 250D and 500D are doublet type close-up lenses which are corrected for chromatic abberation ("achromat"). They offer better performance than the less expensive singlet type lens. I have been happy with the performance of these lenses used on an EF 100mm/2.0, even when used stacked together for higher power (which Canon does not recommend).
