Just remember your focusing ring won't work, whether or not you use a step-up. You won't be anywhere near infinty focus.

The lens to film distance will be different but this should not matter provided you are not using a reproduction table refering to actual sizes possible with various lenses which you intend to use.

Hello,
I'm planning to do some macro experimenting with a reverse-mounted lens. I noticed the adapters are available in 52 and 49 mm diameter versions. If I get the 52 mm version, would I be able to use 49 mm lenses with a filter step-up ring, or would the lens-to-film distance be wrong then (this probably seems a silly question to many,
but I really have no clue how all this works).
TIA, Z.
