CMC-2 2.8x Magnification
The Compact Macro Converter 2 (CMC-2) is a new in-water optic designed to stand alongside the previous CMC-1, offering a less powerful lens choice for "larger" macro subjects that is also noticeably easier to use.

Features
Uncompromising Optical Quality
The CMC-2, like all Nauticam Macro Converters, is constructed from lenses precision crafted of specially formulated low dispersion optical grade glass, ground to the most demanding standards. This means greater sharpness and contrast on every shot and extraordinary resolution rivaling a macro lens used in air. Broadband anti-reflective coatings effectively reduce common optical issues such as chromatic aberrations, coma, spherical aberration, and field deformation associated with underwater macro photography using traditional magnifying lenses. This means superior light transmission, accurate color and no distortion and vignetting in the most demanding situations.
Mounting, and Using the CMC-2
The CMC-2 ships with the common 67mm threaded lens mount. The lens has a protruding rear element, designed to place the accessory optic as close to the camera lens port as is possible, providing the best overall image quality when used with flip lens adapters. A flush mount adapter ring is used when attaching CMC-2 directly to an underwater housing, and is included with the lens. Flip and Bayonet Lens Mounts are available as accessories.
Mounting Configurations
The same Nauticam bayonet system designed with the Wet Wide Lens (WWL-1) is also compatible with CMC-2. (P/N 81302). The bayonet mounting system is the attachment method of choice for shooting both macro and wide angle on the same dive.
