I needed a wide-angle adapter for my Panasonic HC-VX980EB-K, camcorder but locating a 49mm thread screw-in lens was not so easy as I expected. I finally found this little kit and after almost a full month it finally arrived from China.
You get a decent amount of kit for your money. The kit consists of a macro lens, wide-angle adapter lens, lens cap, lens cover, and carry bag. No User Guide is included and although it is not really needed some technical info would have been nice to have.
The small macro lens just screws on in the usual way to the 49mm thread of the camera. Your experience may vary, but my Camcorder already has very good macro capabilities and using this lens does not improve it. The wide-angle lens needs to be screwed first to the macro lens and then to the camera to use. This lens, however, is excellent and gives a markedly wider field of view with very little rectilinear or other aberrations. Of course, this is not a prime lens and is a cheap import so some image degradation must be expected.
I have no criticism over the quality of the lens kit. For the £11.74 price, it is exceptional although of course not quite up to Nikon or Canon quality. The carry bag seems a bit cheap and nasty and the lack of a User Guide is a pity but there is nothing really to complain about for the price..
I have to say am pleased with this lens kit and am happy to recommend it to other camcorder users.
