4 out of 5 stars Good for the prince   September 3, 2010
Alison Bertolina (Pittsburgh, PA)
Its good for the money I spent on it. You have to keep the lens at 18 to keep the effect, and the quality isnt great, but for 40 bucks I was pleased. It does an ok job if you want something to mess around with.

1 out of 5 stars WASTE OF MONEY   August 19, 2010
Yes its compatible with any canon camera. But when using this you HAVE TO use the flash in order for your photos not to come out blurry
Not worth the money. its best to just save up for a real wide angle lens

This is the most fun lens I've ever used! It easily combines with other filtering lenses for amazing shots. It is everything I expected and MORE.


4 out of 5 stars A fun, inexpensive add-on   June 15, 2010

If you're looking for the crystal clarity of a dedicated fish-eye or macro lens, then you will be disappointed with this. But if you just want an inexpensive way to experiment with a near-fisheye and a not-bad closeup filter for some creative shots, then this is a great addition to the bag at a bargain price.

Please note: this lens is an ADD-ON for an existing lens, NOT a lens itself. It has two parts, which screw together - the fisheye adapter and a macro filter - and then the entire unit screws onto the front of an existing lens like a filter. I use it attached to a Tamron 17-50 and the AF works just fine, although only with the macro filter screwed in between the lens and the fisheye (ie it won't AF if just the fisheye portion is attached to the lens) - YMMV. There are no included instructions so I'm not sure if this is how it's supposed to be set up, but it works and gives the desired fisheye effect. AF works fine with the macro filter alone.

Stopped down, pictures are quite sharp, if a little soft at the edges, but you need to be at f8 (f11 even better) or above; below 5.6 everything is pretty soft, but it can be an interesting creative effect.

The item includes both a 58 AND 67mm adapter ring - I wish they'd made that clear, since I bought an extra one which I didn't actually need (I didn't realise it came with a 67mm).



4 out of 5 stars Great product, Great price!   June 7, 2010
Emily Vanpoetsch
This lens is a lot of fun to play with! Great quality especially for the price. The only 'downside' is the bit of fuzziness around the ring on the pictures. I think the fuzziness adds to the effect though...highly recommended.
