The
Canon Macro lens/filter is very nice. Unfortunately, it is also
very expensive compared to the vast selection of other 49mm
Macro filters that are available everywhere that fit right onto
the LensMate adapter. Also, the Canon filter seems to be about
a +4 power so it is not as strong as stacking the +4,+2 and
+1 filters in most macro sets. And with a set, you can "fine-tune"
the amount of strength you need by adding or subtacting filters.
With the Canon, you have one strength.

to get as close as possible with that configuration.
