I ran across these macro's on ebay and wanted to get an opinion before I drop 50bux on a macro(s). Will this actually work seeing how it's advertised as a "4element" macro. Is this good or will a regular 10x macro work just as good as this one? Also I noticed the lens diamter is really small. Will that effect anything. Or all the same when focusing on a tiny image?

Your link is broken. If it's the deal for 5 10x macros, yes they work. But they're small and hard to work with. They also crack very easily (so becareful).

I hate it when the link works on my computer and not for others. Try this one.

Whether they work or not really depends on their focal length compared to the needed focal length.. A lens is corrected for a specific focal length. Move beyond or before that and the image will begin to look like crap.
