Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not more than O.K.
I've had this gear for almost a year or more, using it quite often with daily use over weeks straight, and it's getting a 3 rating because the lens quality isn't up to snuff. I'd love to give it 4's since it's terrific... I mean, terrific... to quick-snap the lens on or off, instead of having to unscrew it, like most of the lens adapters out here. In a snap (pun-intended) you can switch from the wide lens to a telephoto adapter (if you have it) or just use the camera's lens naked. But there's a bit ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - More fisheye than wide angle
Purchased this converter as I wanted something more compact than other wide angle converters. If you want the fisheye look, then get this lens, otherwise it's unusable for regular shots as it distorts perspective too much.

I have always put a wide angle converter on my miniDV and HD cams. I have a couple of Sony and Canon wide angles that cost anywhere from $100-$180. Those have little to no fisheye distortion and most of the time you can just leave them permanently on your camera for ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Nice lens, easy to find on sale
Browsing around Walmart, I found this lens for $20 so I snagged one for my older Sony TRV-240 (Digital8 camcorder) All in all, it's a nice lens. I was hoping to maybe go a tiny bit wider, but anything much more than .7x would cause very noticeable barrel distortions. The mechanism to swap out the filters is nice too. It makes it easy to remove the lens quickly (leaving the converter on the camera) if you need to capture something without the distortion. Now I can't tell that this lens is coated, ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not what I expected
I bought this lense for a DCR-HC28 MiniDV Handycam® Camcorder, it does bring the adaptor for the camcorder, but the lense is so wide that it covers the focus sensor so it is impossible to use it this way.
It is a shame because the seller wouldn't take it back since the package has to be "broken" to take the lense out, so I'm stock with it for good. Even Sony Style has it advertised as compatible to my camcorder, WHAT'S UP WITH THAT!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Almost perfect
I already own the VCL-0637H lens which is about twice as deep and is also about twice as heavy. I found this lens on clearance at a Walmart for $21 so I thought I would give it a shot. It was SO much lighter and looked much nicer because it didn't protrude from the camcorder as much. The carrying case for it is really cute too. I was so happy until I tried to zoom.

For some reason my camera can't zoom at all with it on, but I had no problems zooming in with the other wide angle lens. ... Read More
