Product Description

Since it fits right over your camcorder's existing lens system, a wide-angle and telephoto converter affects the full zoom range of your camcorder's lens. A wide-angle converter increases your angle of view - scenes include more of the landscape, groups include more people, and interiors show more of the room. A .5x wide-angle converter DOUBLES your angle of view, allowing you to get twice as much in the picture (AND your telephoto setting also becomes wider; not zooming in as close). A 2x converter will double your camcorder's maximum focal length, bringing things twice as close. An Opteka conversion lens can actually improve the image that your digital camera receives, and it's about the only accessory that can. By eliminating flare and ghosting, the ugly cousins of reflection and refraction, before they get to your camcorder's original lens system, your camcorder/camera gets a much cleaner image to digitize. Plus, an Opteka converter allows you to use a more optimal part of your original lens system, resulting in more crisp imagery. Nothing changes the way you see the world like High Definition², and no company does High Definition² like Opteka. In the professional setting, Opteka's glass optics define High Definition.

Customer Reviews

wide angle & telephoto lens
Telephoto fits perfect for my Sony DCR DVD405 30mm because the lenses came with an adaptor 30-37mm, the same with the wide angle but if you are not zooming at all you're gonna record the image into a black circle because you can see the edge of the lens. The camera has built in flash for taking picture you need to take the lens off to take picture with the flash light on.
Anyway I like 'em and it's perfect for my camera.

Disappointed
If your thinking of getting this to zoom in on objects and get a clearer picture...upgrade your camera or buy a "real" lens. What a let down for me. I do however use the wide angle lens all the time, but that's not what I purchased this for. I'm just glad it wasn't too expensive.

Nice Lens
Pros: small, cheap, useful, good wide and telephoto lens
Cons: If you screw the lens to tight they can get stuck! so be careful but if you do get them stuck dont worry, I found that a nicely sized wrench can easily get them unstuck, but by hand is a hassle
I would say Great buy! buy them for sporting, family events, and if you like to shoot videos and dont want to spend a ton of money!
