3.0 out of 5 stars Kind of generic and more like a lens cover than a lens
This is not really a lens but a lens cover/converter. You screw it onto the front of one of your lenses and it converts it to a fisheye. If you put it on a zoom lens, you will not get much of a fisheye effect. I will probably need to get a wide angle lens to put it on to get really good fisheye effects.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product and price, August 23, 2009

A terrific toy! If you are thinking of doing some fisheye photography, this is definitely the way to go. It allows you to be very creative, and makes photography a lot of fun. This product is also quite affordable. Keep in mind that you need a wide angle lens to get that cool circular fisheye look.

2.0 out of 5 stars "Novelty" Grade Filter, June 17, 2010

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Opteka HD² 0.20X Professional Super AF Fisheye Lens for Olympus EVOLT E-1, E-3, E-5, E-30, E-300, E-330, E-410, E-420, E-450, E-500, E-510, E-520, E-600, & E-620 Digital SLR Cameras (Electronics)
This is "not" a high quality fisheye product - if you are seeking lens clarity at the margins with little lens ring aberration you will have to pay for a true fisheye lens.

What this is (as the other reviewers have stated) is a screw on filter which is primarily a "novelty" grade filter. For low resolution small (i.e. 3x5/4x6) type photos, this filter will produce good results. Large print photos (11x14+) or high resolution competitive shots will require the substantially extra expenditure (i.e. 8mm F3.5 Olympus DSLR Fisheye).

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect, February 23, 2009

This guy is perfect for just going out and shooting. I took it on a trip to Disneyland yesterday and had so much fun shooting with this lens...I love the effect; it's not the sharpest ever, but it has a look all its own.
