Product Overview:

Unlock the Power of a 60mm Macro—Without Swapping Lenses

If you shoot full-frame mirrorless underwater, you know the struggle: standard 90mm, 100mm, and 105mm macro lenses offer incredible magnification, but their long working distances can make framing fast-moving subjects or shooting in low visibility a real challenge. For years, full-frame shooters looked enviously at DSLR setups running native 60mm lenses for blackwater diving and wide-macro shooting—until now.

The Marelux MV-60 (MacroView 60) is a game-changing wet conversion lens designed specifically for full-frame telephoto macro optics. By converting your 90mm–105mm macro lens to an effective 60mm–70mm focal length, the MV-60 shortens your working distance, widens your field of view, and cuts out excess water column for dramatically sharper, clearer shots.

Whether you're tracking gelatinous creatures on a blackwater dive, shooting skittish reef macro, or capturing small subjects on a wreck, the MV-60 gives you two distinct shooting styles on a single dive. Need full 1:1 magnification? Simply unclip or unscrew the wet lens to return to your native focal length!

Key Features & Why It’s Special

Dual Focal Length Flexibility: Instantly switch between an effective 60–70mm field of view with the wet lens mounted and your native 90–105mm focal length when removed—no port or lens swaps required.
Minimized Water Column: Moving closer to your subject reduces particulate interference, backscatter, and light loss, yielding significantly higher contrast and sharper images.
Faster Target Acquisition: The wider field of view and closer working distance make tracking drifting targets during blackwater dives far easier than struggling with a narrow telephoto frame.
Ultra-Close Contact Focus: Supports near-contact macro shooting for larger macro subjects, nudibranchs, and dynamic reef life.
Full-Frame Optimized: Engineered to deliver crisp optical performance corner-to-corner on high-resolution full-frame mirrorless sensors.
