wideangle supplemental lense February 8, 2008
David F. Bridgman (Orlando FL USA)
Not fully tested yet, but helpful to expand field of view. Anticipate minor loss of resolution
 Not useful with current model Panasonic camcorders December 12, 2007

Attracted by the low price ($20) I bought this set mainly for the wide angle converter. Unfortunately, it provides no benefit with my recently purchased Panasonic VDR-D210 camcorder.
The wide-angle converter itself intrudes into the picture beginning in the corners when the camcorder is set at the widest setting. By the time I get rid of the darkened corners, I have zoomed in to 2x which leaves me back where I started.
With a 32x zoom, the 2x tele converter is not really necessary but does it help? I found that the sharpness is degraded to the point that the camcorder occasionally has trouble focusing. I tried both automatic and manual focus in one test of zooming in on fine print. The loss of clarity made fine print hard to read. It was more readable without the tele-converter and using the digital zoom instead to get to the same 64x zoom level.
Maybe these would provide $20 of value with some other camcorder but I wish I hadn't spent the money. I don't know what price point below $200 would give satisfactory results. I would want to try anything else before I spent any more money on this type of product.
Great for the $$$$ --get what you pay for November 21, 2007

I have used these extensively and I like them alot. The wide angle view is a necessity to get 'filmlike' shots of alot of scenes. And the 2x zoom avoids your camera's digital zoom, whick simply enlagres the pixels and gets blury. Keep your zoom in the optical realm. However; they're are blury spots on the lens, though not bad. My Panasonic PV-GS320 overall picture quality looks better without the add-on lens. The effect makes the trade-off worth it. Excellent choice to begin with, or as a disposable lens. I expect to upgrage to better optical quality.
If you don't already have a wide-angle or 2x zoom lens, then i suggest you buy these. You won't regret it.
 Great product!!! April 12, 2007

This is a great product!! The step up rings are great, there a lot of them. It attaches wonderfully to my 26mm miniDV camcorder lens. And, unlike what you see in the picture, they look pretty cool! And it says on them, "Digital High Definition Lens" now I don't have an HD camcorder, but they look fantastic! The only problem, however is this. If you have the wide angle lens on, and your camcorder set to 16:9, I got the inside edges of the lens on the screen, little dark sections in the 4 corners of the screen. However, if I zoom in a tad, I can't see them. And even with zooming in a tad, its still a much, much bigger view than without the wide angle lens on. I won't even take away a star for that. I give this 5 stars!
