When used with a camera other than those listed, magnification may be reduced
Do not use the camera's built-in flash when the HDS-680K lens is attached (the shadow of the lens may display on the image)
There is a chance the camera's remote control may malfunction while the HDS-680K lens is attached; it's recommended to run a rehearsal shot first
You may at times detect a white dot in the HDS-680K lens when looking into it from the front; this is normal and would not affect image quality

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Has anyone tried this on a Sony FDR-AX53 (with 55mm-to-58mm step up ring)? (Or on the AX33 or AX100)? If so, any feedback on how well it worked?

A: While this lens has not been specifically tested on the AX53 you could certainly attach it with a 55-58mm Step-Up Ring. The AX33 has a 52mm thread, while the AX100 has a 62mm thread. Those are more popular sizes for Wide Angle Conversion lenses and Raynox makes options that will attach directly to those cameras.

Q: 2. Will it work with Canon RF 16mm f2.8?

A: The Raynox HD-7049PRO Wide-Angle Conversion Lens 0.7X (49mm) won't direct thread directly onto the 43mm filter thread on the Canon RF 16mm f/2.8 STM Lens. Consider adding the Sensei 43-49mm Aluminum Step-Up Ring to interface the two products together. See the link below: https://bhpho.to/3NCHDAo

Q: 3. Will this lens work with the fujifilm x100t?

A: This Raynox accessory lens is of a generic design that should work with this camera. Be aware that it not specifically designed to complement the built-in Fujifilm lens. But at this price, the compromise may be worth it, especially in good lighting conditions where your aperture is stopped down and the shutter speed is moderate to fast.

Q: 4. Hi, how work it with Panasonic LUMIX G 14mm f/2.5 ASPH II Lens?

A: This conversion lens is not intended for use with the Panasonic LUMIX G 14mm f/2.5 ASPH II Lens, or any Micro Four Thirds system cameras. iT is typically used with consumer camcorders.

Q: 5. Can I use this with my Panasonic AG-AC30?

A: We do not believe it will work for you

Q: 6. Would this work well with a Canon VIXIA HF G30?

A: I was not happy with the optical quality of the HD-6600 Pro 0.66x wide angle lens. It was very soft over all and had a small center area of the lens that actually reduced the contrast, so things in the that circle that were black, looked dark grey. Very strange lens. I would not recommend this lens to anyone. I would stick to name brand lens.Will

Q: 7. is that lens zoom throu?

A: Yes it is. Results may vary from camera to camera.

Q: 8. Will this wide angle converter work with a Nikon Coolpix A and UR-E24 adapter?

A: Sorry, I have no experience with a Nikon Coolpix A or UR-E24 adapter. It works well with my Sony.

Q: 9. Will this fit a panasonic hcv770?

A: Hi, yes it will fit, both lens and camera are 49mm threading.

Q: 10. Will this fit rx1r2?

A: It will physically fit but I am not sure it will work as it has not been tested yet. Please check with one of the bloggers online who might have this camera

[0.5 lb] We use this on the front of our Panasonic SD700 camcorder - and it works a treat! The picture quality is impressive with little to no blurriness at the edges. Build quality is solid and the rigid protective case is welcome. No problems recommending this. 5

[None] We shoot primarily homes so this is a must have to help showcase homes inside. It gets to about 22mm so much better than without. Kevin with Arizona Imaging 5

[0.5 lb] I shopped around heavily before buying this lens and couldn't be happier with my decision. My Sony camcorder can now record the kids theater performances like a pro! Sitting in the back of the theater is no longer a must. I love it. There is no fish-eye effect at all, which was a big relief. 5

Bruce the Caver	11/08/2024
[None] I use this lens with a Panasonic TM-700 camcorder. Very well made. Good optics. No visible distortion. Autofocus works well withy this lens 5

James	01/08/2024
[0.5 lb] Used to attach to a Panasonic SD700 and SD600. Any 0.66 would nicely squeezes more field of view into the camera without too much distortion - but there was little/none with this. Also, no darkening or shadows at the corner. There are many cheaper (much cheaper) add-on wide/long converter lens, but while lens like this (and other makes) are a bit pricey, they give a nice clear image, don't distort much, and in the case of my SD600/700 didn't interefere with any of the auto/manual controls. A nice, but not essentual, addition to your camcorder kit when shooting indoors in cramped conditions or going into a picturesque landscape. (I would especially recommend this for Panasonic SD600/700 owners as this fits directly onto the camcorder without the need for a step up/down ring. Even a well-made conversion lens, when not properly screwing onto the camcorder's actual lens, can produce some poor results.) 5

[0.5 lb] Use : Real Estate virtual Tours Great : Fits onto the Sony A300 like a glove Has little lens distortion on edges Quality of the lens Cons : Besides the quite obvious lens distortion not a single con it's the perfect wide angle add on lens. Final Thoughts : Would Definitely buy again, and intend to it was a great buy!!! 5

Brian L.	23/07/2024
[0.5 lb] My Sony HDR-PJ790V camcorder has a 17X zoom lens built in and this WA lens seems to work fine without any noticeable blurriness in a series of test photos and videos. Even though I wanted it for occaisonally getting a little wider FOV it also seemed to stay sharp enough when zoomed in. The construction seems great, especially for this price. Threads easily fit my camcorder and the included dust caps protect both ends when not in use. 5

Iceman	07/07/2024
[None] Used this lens with my JVD HD 100 camera and it was excellent. For the price, I was extremely happy. No out of focus at the end of zoom - worked great. Would highly recommend. 5

Kamaaina	04/07/2024
[4.4 oz (125 g)] Bought this add-on for my just-purchased Panasonic V720 camcorder. There's some vignetting but to be expected with .66x magnification as the comparable Pansonic wide-angle is .75x. Just zoom out a bit and you're fine. Lens construction looks pretty good; image quality looks comparable to the V720 lens, threads in perfectly with V720. I got this used lens for $50 off the retail price. B&H rated 9 for Shows signs of use, but very clean... Honestly it looks brand-new with no nicks or scratches on the lens casing. What a bargain! 5

[4.4 oz (125 g)] I use it with my hdc tm700 and it works perfectly with very minimal distortion and very fine detail. As is expected with any wide angle lens, there is some noticeable lens flare is used outside. Consider purchasing a lens hood. Otherwise, this was a perfect choice! Very affordable and not too heavy. 5
