Canon EF (S1510332)

Once again, you get what you pay for. I use this with a Rebel XTi. This lens works great, quiet enough focus and covers a good range at a great price. However, I hope you like your pictures a little soft. All my pictures are a little soft with...

Quantaray 100-300mm F4.5-6.7 zoom lens

I agree with the other reviewers that this lens is built cheap-but it is cheap so what's the complaint? I've used the lens on my Pentax K10d & while it doesn't produce saturated colors, it is pretty sharp. This lens is ok for a beginner & has some uses...

Adorama Stainless Steel Film Developing Reel for 35mm Size Film

There is a secret about using these reels. Sort of best practice, using which, you will get much better results. Example. If you are about to buy, say, 8 of these reels, $7.99 each plus quite not cheap shipping, than take four or five (depending on how...

Adorama Nikon Lens To Canon EOS Body Adapter

Although it worked as advertised, this is a very fragile ring. Mine broke after 2 weeks of use. I didn't abuse it or even used it very extensively. I've probably mounted my old nikkor lenses 10-15 times before it disintegrated. Had to return to...

Poorly constructed and did not work on my Nikon D60. Quite simply, the camera would not focus with the teleconverter attached. I purchased the teleconverter to take 'up close' pictures of California's Sea Otters and Elephant Seals....wanted to pitch it...

Phoenix 650-1300mm f/8-16 Lens

It's heavy and cumbersome. It takes some getting used to the lens. You need a very sturdy tripod for the lens and one for the camera is not a bad idea. The pics are ok. I'm still working with it. If you expect crystal clear pics then get a...

ToCAD Sunpak CF-7063-CP 77mm Circular Polarizer Filter

Bought this filter for a very small price, with very low expectations. Even in such a case this filter fails to meet expectations. The build quality is abysmal, while I was attaching the filter to my lens the glass just fell off! I put the filter back...

Interfit Photographic INT410

I was a bit skeptical after reading some of the reviews. I decided to give this a try after reading "Just me" review and I am glad I did. Yes, it is plastic (aren;t most things?) but it is a solid unit. the problems noted with closing the door is a...

I so wanted this to work. It came with a rip in the side. Once the genie is let out of the bag, forget getting it back in. Don't think like I did.... oh I will just video how it came out, then I will get it back in. Nope. It happens so friggin'...

Zeikos ZE-CU452 Multi-Coated close-up Filter 4pk Set for 52mm Lens Macro...

They get you incredibly close to the subject. And they produce "amazing images" - only amazingly poor quality - too much CA and a lot of noise. For fun maybe, but definitely not for serious use.

Even though this was remanufactured, the camera arrived in excellent condition. Unfortunately, the camera did not come as advertised. The camera was falsely advertised as having a 14-45mm lense. What you really get is a 17.5-45mm made in China cheap...

Konica Minolta 6733910

This lens has several issues: 1) Bright lights cause vertical streaks across the field of view due to internal reflections. 2) This lens has no threads for filters. I usually use a protective UV filter to prevent the lens from getting scratched. ...

Snap-On .5x Wide Angle Lens for Canon SD700 SD600 SD550 SD450 SD430

Well, these snap-on lenses ARE cheap! The picture you get for the effort is completely disappointing. I just through the lens away. It wasn't worth sending back for a few bucks.

Crystal Optics 86mm Circular Polarizer Filter

While this might be a great buy, it is not compatable with a Fuji S1500 Camera, since there is no way to attach the filters to the camera. I just wasted my time in purchasing this item. When questioning the seller, I could not get a clear answer why...

Hama 77,0 mm

I'm very disappointed with this, the lens cap does not fit snugly against the lens, leaving a tiny cap for dust to get past. Also the spring mechanism is so weak and flimsy the lens cap just falls off with almost no effort at all.
