Anyone used the Raynox dcr-5000?

YJD · 10-20-2008, 07:27 AM

Since I have the Raynox DCR-250, I have been looking at their website to see if they didn't have any other interesting products.

I've found the Raynox dcr-5000, which is a front-end adapter that x0.5 with a threat of 52mm (perfect for my kit lens). Or the XL-5000PRO. It will bring my 28mm to 14mm.

Did any one used that adapter before?

It cast around $90, and I don't really want to spend the money if it's not going to be any good.

Thank you.

Regarding the Raynox dcr-5000, I asked Raynox and they said the DCR7900ZD was a lot better for SLR cameras.

Anyway to find out which Raynox product is better for SLR, check this page.
