Conclusion: Good product, great price
Review: The wide angle lens works well. I was a little apprehensive about buying a reconditioned product, but this was so close to new, I could not tell the difference. No scratches on the lens or the housing. The shipping was quick and the price was 1/3 of new. I am pleased with the quality of the product and how the product performs. Evaluation:
Conclusion: A useful lens!
Review: I bought this lens to go with a FujiFilm S602, and now I wouldn't be without it. The lens comes with an adapter ring, which you require to mount the lens to the camera, and a case to put them both lens and adapter ring together in your gadget bag. My only regret is that, once mounted, the lens can only be used with the maximum wide angle; it takes time to put it on and remove the lens, so this means I have to plan action shots ahead. If you do zoom in with the wide angle lens mounted, you get the effect of a circular mask to your shot.
Users be aware you can't really use it with the built-in flash as the lens partially eclipses the flash at the bottom of the shot - to get round this, invest in a hot shoe mountable flash gun and make your camera even more versatile. You will probably want a gadget bag to put your lens in, so adding a flash gun to the kit won't matter much. Evaluation:
Conclusion: Nice lens for specialized use
Review: This lens is great for those special places that the 35mm field of view is too limiting. I bought this lens to use aboard my boat to capture a wide angle view of our surroundings. I am happy with the results.
The 28mm is also considered an excellent choice for shooting architecture using the 35mm format type camera. Evaluation:
Review: The wide angle lens works great. I just wish I could use the built in flash with it. If I risk it and use the flash, it leaves a small half moon black spot at the middle bottom of my pictures. At any rate, I still love it and am happy I made the purchase.
