I bought this to be able to take wide angle interior shots. The wide angle lens won't fit my camera when detached from the macro lens. When both lenses qre used together, you get extreme vignette. I'll be returning it.

I'm giving this product 5 stars because A) it does well what I bought it for (wide-angle for interior room photos), B) it also comes with a macro lens that can be used alone for extreme close-up shots, and C) the very low price!I am using this lens combo attached to a 18-55mm lens on my Canon T2i.This isn't perfect, by any means. I noticed that the images taken with the wide-angle functionality are slightly fuzzy compared to the same photo taken without the wide-angle lens attached. HOWEVER, that fuzziness is only really noticeable when the image is being displayed full screen on a 1920 x 1080 monitor. My intended use for this lens is to take realty images and it's not at all typical in my area for realty images to be larger than 1200 x 800. And, at that smaller size, the images look good. They do have some vignetting which is easily fixed in any photo editor. I use GIMP which is amazing and open-source (a.k.a. free to use). Every photo taken with ANY wide-angle lens will distort the perspective of a room. This distortion has to be fixed anyway for realty photos and fixing it also fixes the unwanted vignette. In case you want to use GIMP also, the tool is in the Filter menu > Distorts > Lens Distortion.If the fuzziness while zoomed into the image is my largest complaint, which it is, then I can't justify that being a deduction in stars for a product being sold for under $10.I wasn't expecting to receive a macro lens as part of this purchase. So, I see that as a big bonus. All in all, I'm pretty thrilled that I am able to take good realty photos now and I'm quite happy that the cost didn't dent my checkbook.

This works surprisingly well for under $10. I am using it on a Canon SL1 with the kit lens (58mm thread).Those who say it doesn't fit their camera need to learn about basic photography equipment. This lens screws on to the front if your existing lens, like a filter, to widen the view.

Great value for the price. Fits my cannon rebel perfectly. Greatly increases resolution for macro images

This is a great product for the price. The wide angle view is slight yet doable. However, be very careful when attaching this to the main camera lens. The threads are very thin, and if forced on, you could do damage to the main lens’ threads. What I would suggest is placing a UV filter on the main lens, then attaching this product to the filter. If you do ‘screw up’, you’ll only occur a loss of the filter and this wide angle lens, not the main lens. Also, if you do a total zoom out (max wide angle), you will notice a vignette. Just adjust zoom slightly to overcome this. You’ll see the vignette in your view finder.

I have enjoyed using this lens. It's great for portraits. I was a photographer at at wedding recently and the photos came out great.
