Not recommended:
Because a certain level od perripheral illumination fall-off due to the mechanical vingnetting will occur.

Caution

Note that when using these lenses for flash shooting, the image may be truncated due to mechanical vinetteing, or the exposure may change. Therefore, it is recommended to shoot test shots beforehand and apply flash exposure compensation or exposure compensation if necessary. Also note that vingnetting or exposure above may chnage depending on the shooting distance. When using a zoom lens, vingnetting or exposure above may chnage depending on the focal length.

Caution

When using, attach the Macro Lite Adaptor directly to the lens.
58mm filter can be attached to the filter mounting thread of the MT-26EX-RT.
