2 out of 5 stars Doesn't fit!   August 30, 2008
Linda S. Cahill (Clearwater,FL)
Bought it and tried to put it on my camera and it doesn't fit. Someone said I need to buy another lense to put this onto it. Why didn't they tell me that in the first place!


3 out of 5 stars Dont be fooled by the Name..   August 12, 2008

It says that its a Wide Angle, Panoramic Macro, FISHEYE Lens.. but when i received mine, it was "semi-fisheye". Im kinda disappointed about it. but over all, the Wide Angle takes really nice pictures.


3 out of 5 stars good buy for the price   August 12, 2008
R. Monestel (Tampa, Fl, USA)
I bought this item just to add some flexibility to my canon rebel digital. It works fine for fun wide angle pictures, and you can't beat the price. In extreme wide angle, there is distortion but it works great for panoramics.


4 out of 5 stars Lots of fun on EFS 18-55 kit lens for only $30!   July 13, 2008
Slacker Mom (St. Paul, MN)
I was going to sell the EFS 18-55 kit lens that came with my 20D, but now I'm keeping it since this fisheye is so much fun. You simply add the included step-up ring (which changes the gadget's girth from 52mm to 58mm) and screw it onto the filter end of the lens. The further you zoom out, the more the fisheye takes effect until it's almost a full circle. By keeping the lens closer to the 18mm end, you get a less pronounced distortion. When you want to use the macro function, you unscrew the front part of the gadget, leaving just the macro part on the lens. Would almost give it 5-stars for the money, except that the rubber lens cap is so loose it's nearly worthless.

Without the step-up ring, the gadget also fits a 52mm filter size lens. I tried it on my Canon EF-S 60mm macro, but it didn't seem to work on that one.



4 out of 5 stars Nice lens   January 8, 2008
Carl Wutkee (Los Angeles, CA)
The ad was not clear that this screws onto the end of the factory zoom lens with a reducing adaptor but that was OK once I tried it out. It does fisheye and wide angle as you zoom. It shoots about 180 degrees from 1 foot away. Clear sharp images. Does not darken the image.
