Reverse Mount Adapter Ring KiwiFotos 52mm to 67mm for Lens Reversal Mounting

KiwiFotos Reverse Mount Adapter Ring 52mm to 67mm converts lenses with a 52mm filter thread into a 67mm mount suitable for lens reversal mounting. Made of metal, the adapter provides a secure mechanical connection that allows a smaller-thread lens to be mounted in reverse on camera bodies, extension tubes, or larger adapter rings. The product is intended to expand close-up and macro photography options by enabling higher magnification from standard lenses without requiring a dedicated macro lens.

Advantages

The metal construction ensures a stable and durable connection between the reversed lens and the receiving mount, reducing play and wobble during shooting. By adapting a 52mm thread to a 67mm mount, the adapter offers a simple mechanical solution for achieving high-magnification macro images using existing lenses. It is compact, lightweight and requires no electronics, which maintains optical simplicity and compatibility with manual aperture control and focusing.

Suitable for

• Macro and close-up photography using reversed standard or wide-angle lenses
• Photographers who want higher magnification without a dedicated macro lens
• Use with extension tubes, macro bellows, or camera bodies that accept a 67mm mount
• DIY and experimental optical setups requiring a secure mechanical adapter

Key specifications

• Thread conversion: 52mm (female) to 67mm (male)
• Material: metal construction for durability and rigidity
• Function: allows lens reversal mounting for macro photography
• Compatibility: fits lenses with 52mm filter threads and accessories accepting 67mm mounts
• Weight and dimensions: compact and lightweight design suitable for handheld or tripod use

How to use

To use the adapter, screw the 52mm side onto the front filter thread of the lens you intend to reverse. Then mount the 67mm side into the receiving adapter, extension tube, or directly to the camera body interface that accepts a 67mm mount. Ensure threads are engaged smoothly and tightened securely by hand; avoid cross-threading. When using a reversed lens, focus and aperture control are manual: set aperture on the lens (if possible) and focus by moving the camera or subject. Use a stable support or tripod for critical macro work to reduce camera shake.

Usage recommendations

Use center-weighted or manual exposure modes, and consider live view with focus magnification for precise focusing. Because reversing a lens disables electronic communication, set exposure parameters on the camera or use external metering. For best results, combine the adapter with a short focal length lens for greater magnification and work at close subject distances, using controlled lighting or a ring light to maintain even illumination.
