The GemLightbox Macro is macro engineered and designed with newer technology with all of the features built in. With the GemLightbox Macro, no additional add-ons are required. In addition, the GemLightbox Macro also features a 10X zoom macro lens specifically designed for diamond and gemstone 360 photography which is not available with the GemLightbox.

The overall production cost of the GemLightbox Macro is also higher than the GemLightbox as each macro photography component is custom designed and specific machines and engineers are also required for its manufacture and assembly process.
