The Olympus Body Cap Lens 15mm F8 is a tiny, lightweight, inexpensive piece of kit that somehow squeezes a focusable three element lens into its 9mm-thick housing. Optically it doesn't win any plaudits, but in a way that's not really the point. Its...

Item arrived on time and looks great. I am yet to test how well it works. I already have a Matte box so I wasn't thinking it would be necessary.

I had to send my 1st set back because the macro switch kept sticking so I am a little concerned about the 2nd one but it has worked great for now.Takes ok pics but would like to see a better quality.

It creates not a nice effect on UWA lens such as my sigma 10-20mm. I never liked the pictures taken with it and have found myself not using it at all.

I've returned this product because it would not stay on my camera. Even when I gently would open the cover the whole piece just came off the camera. The adhesive is not strong enough and there isn't much of it to keep it on the camera.

I bought the lens because I'm a Realtor and often find it difficult to get good shots of bathrooms or areas with small doorways. The lens creates a shadow around all four corners of the shot and the only way to avoid it is zoom in a little, defeating...

Overall this kit is a good value. I have had the camera Olympus Stylus TG 3 for about two months and have just returned from taking the camera and kit on vacation to North Cascades. The lens: gives great clarity, but leaves a dark ring/pin hole effect...

My lens broke and I was heartbroken! I looked on line and found the exact same thing. There was a problem with the shipping company but the seller resent a new one. Couldn't be happier! Thank you.

Poor poor very poor. Don't bother, too hazy, poor quality and it doesn't do what it says on the box

Compared to my 800mm Sigma the quality is absolutely appalling but that weighs and costs about twenty times as much so maybe unfair to compare. I've not had much luck hand-holding it but on a tripod with time to focus accurately the quality is usable...

I read the reviews but figured it couldn't be all that bad and I was right it did work... It popped when it was supposed to and everything seemed to work. The problem I had was the hotshot area is not flat so when you are tightening things down it is...

The segment of ultra-wide, fast zoom lenses designed for full frame is very differentiated. In fact it seems every producer follows their own path, or even several paths at the same time. In the case of Canon it all started in 1989 with the EF 20–35 mm...

" I am with the reviewer who said this lens gets a bad rap. I've been shooting pictures since the state of the art was the "match needle" TTL metering. I still have all those lenses and have tried shooting pictures with an adapter on a G6. And I have...

Firstly to provide some context to this review, I reviewed this lens alongside the Samyang 35mm lens using a Canon 5D which has a full-frame sensor (and therefore no CCD cropping). As a child when I first got to play with cameras, I had a 50mm and 35mm...

After some research I found that these redhancer filters can help to cut orange skyglow from sodium streetlights. It's a similar filter as those used as eye protection by glass workers. I've used it several times and found that it works fairly well....

NOT OF A PARTICULAR HIGH QUALITY. BUT. DOES THE JOB REASONABLY WELL. TAKES A BIT OF TIME TO MASTER IT BUT AS I HAVE ALREADY SAID, NOT HIGH TECH.

Excellent, and inexpensive, variable range filter. Really easy to use without having to carry lots of kit around. Great value.

Compatibility chart on Sony's website says VCL-HG1737C telephoto lens is compatible with HDR-CX430V camcorder, bought the lens and it is not. Camera mount is 45.5mm and lens mount is 36mm. Total waste of time. Stars reflect dissatisfaction with...

I'm still am trying to figure it all out but so far I love it, I would recommend it to any one who would want to buy it. It is a welcome addition to my lens.

This is supposed to fit the Nikon SB80 DX flash, among others, but it doesn't. It fits so tightly that after a moment it pops right back off (unless they shipped me the wrong diffusers - but the package it came in did specify the SB80 DX).
