Finally its here !!October 16, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This product can be used on Canons HF11 / HF10 / HF 100 / HG21 and HR10. (Amazon doesnt mention it)
This compact, reliable lens extends your view by roughly 40 %.
The lens has the standard factor 0.7 which all professional photo and video makers are producing. Therefore it does not have the wideness of non - genuine niche marcet products like f.e. Raynox's HD-5050 PRO or HD-3032 PRO.
However, It does keep up the high visual standard you would have come to expect from Canon.
Or to put it bluntly - it doesnt downgrade your FULL HD camcorder to a webcam ;-)
Usually adding a lens will introduce a whole new set of issues. (less light sensitivity, contrast, sharpness, details, additional colour fringing etc.). But not with this product - or at least not that I am aware off.
So if you need the extra 40%, of course fully zoomable without the short comings most products from competitors come with, than this lens is a sound choice !!
The lens colour fits the silver of the camcorder and changing the lens is easy to do but takes roughly 8-10 seconds. A snap - lock it like feature could reduce that time to perhaps 2-4 seconds.
Whats nice is that the package contains a Canon original leather-like bag in which you can store your lens protected when not in use.
Thanks Canon !!
