Conclusion: Excellent lens


Review: Very satisfied with this lens ... the optics are a perfect match with my Kodak DX7590 digital camera. Yes, the lens does add weight to the camera, but I've never seen a good telephoto that didn't have some weight to it. The thing to remember is that this lens will cause some vignetting if you try to use it at anything less than full optical zoom on your Kodak camera. However the image clarity is amazing and it fits perfectly. The only slight drawback to this is you can't use the built-in flash ... it appears that the lens cuts down on the light too much (there is a lot of lens here). This lens is definitely best used in daylight conditions.

If you're looking at this lens for your Kodak DX7590 (or similar) don't forget that you will need an adapter - this screws onto the adapter the same as a filter would (55mm filter thread). The adapter fits easily into the internal threads around the lens housing of the camera and allow you to attach this lens, the wide angle, or other lenses and filters.

Review: As far as my product I am satisfied with it. The only thing I dislike about it is my camera is a lot heavier with it on. I would recomend any one that orders to make sure they came ship thru the postal service for you can ship priority and get your merchandise within 2 - 3 days and it does not cost near as much as you would pay thru other companies.

Conclusion: Telephoto Lens


Review: This is a magnificent piece of equipment. Only minor flaws to deal with... Using the Kodak Z812IS EasyShare I found that the auto-focus sometimes will not work. It does work 95% of the time though. Vignetting, the edges being blackend by the extension tube, does occurs as listed by other reviews. This lens is meant to increase maximum zoom, so it should be a problem if used properly.
Positive comments are that it increases your total zoom for video recordings as well. This is good for high stadium filming etc. Try and keep the zoom range constant for even focus, as it will go out of focus quickly.
Recommendations: If you go with Kodak you get a great product, no worries, your money's worth. Other brands may be a gamble especially with coatings and optics. 1.4x increases total zoom significantly. It is my wish to try a lens with more magnification capabilities. I may try one of Opteka Lenses 2.6x or 3.3x for a more profound effect, despite the risk.
Overall expand your photographic possibilities with a telephoto lens. Good luck.

Conclusion: It looks great but how does it work???


Review: I got this lens after reading tons of reviews. I've looked in the Kodak manual & been all over the net. I can't find anything to tell me how to make it work w/ the Z7590. It doesn't seem to do anything. I know it well because of all the images I've seen but does anyone know how to make it work? I can't find any settings in the menu to turn on the zoom. This lens & a new Mac laptop will have me in a looney bin soon!
