Use GoPro PHOTO MODE for stunning macro photography
The sample photos below were taken with a GoPro Hero GoPro 3+, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,11 and 12    Black camera set to medium photo mode. The first image is without lens and the second is with the +15 MacroMate Mini.

Use GoPro VIDEO MODE to bring tiny action to the big screen
The video below was shot with a GoPro Hero3+ camera set to narrow video mode and a +15 MacroMate Mini lens. While the +15 MacroMate mini works in wide, medium, and narrow video modes, the narrow mode gives you the sharpest edges and the most stunning results. Watch this video to see how the +15 MacroMate Mini has revolutionized GoPro for underwater.

Why do you need a macro lens?
Without corrective optics, GoPro Hero3, Hero3+ & Hero4 cameras can only focus to about 1-2 feet underwater. The custom +15 MacroMate Mini design allows you to get within 3 inches of your subject so you can bring the tiny wonders you find to the big screen. If your favorite underwater subjects are about the size of a golf ball, the +15 MacroMate Mini is about to become your best friend.

Fill your frame with golfball sized subjects
The FLIP +10 Close-Up Lens works great for shooting subjects sized from soccer balls down to golf balls that are roughly 6-12 inches from the camera. However, the +15 MacroMate Mini brings your focus to about 3 inches allowing you to fill the frame with subjects as small as a golf ball. The video frames below were shot with a GoPro Hero3+ in narrow video mode and illustrate the difference between the lenses. The scorpion fish head was about the size of a softball. The camera was moved closer to the subject to get the +15 MacroMate Mini image. Our staffs favorite macro configuration is a FLIP4 with both a +15 MacroMate Mini and +10 Close-Up Lens so were ready for all subjects.

The +15 MacroMate Mini is the only true macro lens for the GoPro
Two custom-designed glass optics are mated together and sealed in a vacuum resulting in a lens that is perfected for underwater use. This design delivers sharper images, higher contrast, and deeper blacks than any other GoPro lens designed to date. Its state-of-the-art and born from countless hours of in-water testing.

No plastic parts to break - rugged aluminum construction
The FLIP4 filter system is machined from aircraft-grade aluminum and is designed to withstand the bumps and grinds of professional underwater use. The aluminum FLIP4 frame clamps securely to your GoPro and a precision machined hinge keeps your lenses and filters flipping year after year. Weve put the same attention to detail in the +15 MacroMate Mini and carved each lens ring from a solid block of aluminum.

Fumble free flip design means youll never lose your lens
When the action is happening, you dont want to be fumbling with lenses. Our world-famous flip design gives you one-finger access to color filters and lenses on the same dive without the fear of dropping a lens into the deep. The +15 MacroMate Mini threads securely to the aluminum 55mm flip adapter so you can always keep it handy. As you know, dive trips are expensive and require a lot of effort. The last thing you want to do is fumble or break gear on a once-in-a-lifetime trip. The FLIP system and +15 MacroMate Mini will not let you down and more importantly it will revolutionize the way you use a GoPro underwater.
