Proocam 49mm To 58mm Step-up Ring

The Raynox DCR-250 clip-on lens that I own, it can only be mounted onto a camera that has lens thread size of between 52mm and 67mm.

My Canon 50mm f/1.8 STM lens on my Canon EOS 800d/T7i though, only has a thread size of 49mm.

So how am I going to mount my Raynox clip-on lens onto my Canon 50mm lens? Get myself a step-up ring of course. And that is exactly what I did 2 months ago - I bought myself a Proocam 49mm to 58mm step-up ring. A Proocam by the way since I am happy with my last purchase for my point-and-shoot camera. The price too is quite reasonable at RM20 since they were having a promotion at that time.

Pretty good and I am satisfied with this metal step-up ring. Quite solidly build. Mounting it on the lens was easy - I didn't encounter any problems. And more importantly, my Raynox clips on nicely.

So now I can get really close on my close-ups and fill the frame with my tiny still-life shots. Pictures like this for example (beads are 5mm in size, by the way):
