Schneider 138mm Diopter Full +1/2 Gen2

Professional Close-Up Performance with Schneider Gen2

The Schneider 138mm Diopter Full +1/2 Gen2 is a premium optical attachment designed to significantly reduce the minimum object distance (MOD) of your lenses. By shortening the focal length of the optical system, this +1/2 strength diopter allows cinematographers to capture intricate macro-style imagery without the need for a dedicated macro lens.

Advanced Gen2 Optical Engineering

This second-generation filter features an upgraded broadband anti-reflective coating, ensuring higher light transmission and superior contrast. The Gen2 design is engineered for increased durability on set while maintaining the pristine image quality Schneider is known for. Because it is a front-mounted element, it requires no exposure compensation, allowing you to maintain your aperture settings without light loss.

Creative Versatility for Cinema

The Schneider +1/2 Diopter is a vital tool for filmmakers using vintage glass, anamorphic lenses, or zooms that often have restrictive close-focus capabilities. It enables a wide range of storytelling effects, from achieving a miniaturized look on wide-angle lenses to capturing extreme fine details on long focal lengths. This filter integrates seamlessly into professional workflows, providing the flexibility needed for high-end commercial and narrative production.
