When I asked Wyze’s AI tool about the distance for the Close-up Lens’s focus, it told me that…
…so your 1′ may be too far outside this range for whatever camera you’re using in conjunction with the Close-up Lens.
Did you take a look at @lmester’s post I linked above? That shows lenses from inexpensive reading glasses being used with a Cam v4 to record a hummingbird feeder, and I think the results are excellent! Check out that topic to see (and hear) the videos.
