Nearsighted on a Sony CCD-TR500 January 11, 2004 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This lens has a problem, shared with the Sunpak CAL-1160 37mm 2x lens, in that when used on a Sony CCD-TR500 camcorder zoomed in, the camcorder can't focus beyond about 50 feet. The higher-grade lens, the Kenko SGT-20Hi, on the other hand, does not have this problem, and I would recommend it over the SGT-20. All the 37mm 2x lenses I've tested on this camcorder share the problem of vignetting when it is zoomed out to wide angle---something not mentioned in the Web descriptions of these lenses.
