Neat, cool intro to fisheye lens use April 18, 2008
W. tingler (Ohio)
It has a macro which takes much of the "fisheye-ness" away when attached. Looks like between a 0.6x and .45x lens. Take the macro off and you have your circle cut out everything is warped view. Macro shots are a little foggy. You can zoom about 1/4 of your cam's zoom until it gets blurry. Wide angles arent designed for that anyways. Also hard to keep clean with the lens surface being so big. Fun for close quarters videography. Cars, small offices, etc. I have one issue with this lens. When i take the macro off, and the lens part attach to the cam without the macro, the threads are deep enough or just dont jive with the camera. The lens fell off into my hands (thank god) once or twice.
I enjoy using it and am glad I bought it.

Useless product description December 24, 2007

The product description reads:
"Fits many Sony/JVC/Olympus/Canon/N"

That's wonderful, but how does a customer determine if it will fit a specific model of the cameras listed? Duh.
