5.0 out of 5 stars Great Lens for Eight Bucks! February 28, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase
Based off of the two reviews I was unsure how good of a lens attachment I would be receiving, but for $7.99 I threw the dice.

I received this lens attachment a few short days after ordering and it screwed onto the front of my 18 to 55mm (D60) lens without any issue. (the lens attachment is made of metal and glass -- it feels good and sturdy).

After taking several photos I noticed that when set to the widest angle possible the corners vignette and get blurred.

For some this might be a complete turn off, for others it might mean that you just found the best accessory to add to your camera bag for eight bucks. When set to just about any setting other than the widest no vignetting is noticable.

I think it's a perfect new toy for anyone willing to experiment with accessories.

If you want to see what the vignetting looks like here is a link to my official review along with numerous shots that I took with this lens.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not .45X But Still A Great Deal! April 27, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase
Length: 6:46 Mins
There seems to be a lot of confusion over this lens adapter. First of all, it's not a standalone lens, it's a lens adapter that screws onto the front of your existing lens. Second, the 52mm refers to what diameter filter thread this screws onto, not what focal length lens this mounts to. You can use this on any camera and lens as long as the lens has a 52mm filter thread on the front. If you want to know what diameter filter thread your lens has just look at the inside of the lens cap. It should say in there or there should be a number on the lens next to a diameter symbol that looks like this: Ř.

The lens adapter includes two pieces. They can be used together to give you a wider angle view on your existing lens, or you can just use the macro filter part to take pictures of stuff close up.

As far as image quality, if you're just using the macro filter without the wide-angle adapter it looks great. Not quite as good or as powerful magnification as a dedicated macro lens, but still it's very good for most purposes. If you've used a close-up filter before that's basically what this is.

When using the wide angle adapter piece the center of the frame stays sharp and the edges are pretty blurry. There is also significant barrel distortion. If your subject is on the edge of your frame or you need to keep your lines straight then you won't like this lens adapter. But if you don't have those requirements or you don't mind sacrificing some image quality to get smaller size, lighter weight, and cheaper price, then this little adapter works quite well. It's a great economical way to try out wide angle or macro and see if it's something you might want to buy a dedicated lens for. It also works pretty well for minimalist kits such as a 35mm prime lens and shooting with shallow depth of field, since it usually doesn't matter if the edges are blurry.

The biggest problem I have with this wide-angle adapter is that it claims to have a 0.45X magnification factor, but in reality I measured closer to 0.7X magnification. Mounted on a 35mm lens it looked more like 25mm or 26mm.

5 stars for value, -1 star because magnification is different than stated.

Update: I didn't realize this until a commenter brought it to my attention, but this adapter appears to have a different magnification depending on what focal length lens it's being used with. It has a much stronger effect with wider angle lenses (35mm or less on full frame), with longer focal lengths showing progressively less of an effect. By around 50mm the effect barely becomes noticeable.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Bargain Lens July 7, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase
One of my photo students brought this wide-angle lens to class and I tried it. I was impressed enough with the few shots I took that I ordered my own lens from Amazon.

I tested mine on a Nikon digital SLR with an 18-55mm zoom lens and on a Canon G5 compact digital camera with a 35mm to 140mm zoom lens (35mm equiv). On the Nikon, this wide-angle lens expanded the wide-angle coverage of the 18mm focal length to something wider than 14mm. On the Canon, this wide-angle lens expanded the wide-angle coverage of the 35mm focal length to slightly wider than 28mm. The macro portion of this lens was similar in performance to my +10 diopter supplemental close-up lens (also called a close-up filter by some).

After additional shots and tests, I can say without reservation--this lens produces decent quality wide-angle images and the macro portion produces decent quality close-up images. Yes, there is some darkening of the corners of the image (vignetting) and there is significant curving of straight lines (barreling) and there is some loss of detail on the edges. However, this lens is a great bargain and I will highly recommend it to future students.
