Raynox HD-5050PRO - Lente de Conversão Super Grande Angular, 37mm, 0.5x

Comments about Raynox HD-5050PRO, 37mm, 0.5x, Super Wide Angle Conversion Lens:

Was planning use this lens on a Sanyo VCC-HD4600 (4Mp) IP camera. But it gives poor picture quality, even relative close to the center of the picture.
It's of no use on a HD camera when it degrades the picture quality so bad. With the adapter ring there was some vignetting, better without the adapter ring. But the HD4600 has a relative large lens(and only 37mm adapter ring), so that may be the main reason for vignetting.

I purchased two of these lenses for my Fuji W3 stereo camera. Now I can capture much more area in my interior shots than before. These lenses have better resolution than my other similar wide lenses. They are heavier and larger than my other lenses but that is necessary for the superior performance.

I use this on a Sony SR7 and Canon HV30 for land and underwater filming...

No vignetting and full zoom capacity, couldn't be happier !

The star it lost is due to plastic parts, especially the adapter ring that are kinda flimsy and fragile and easily stick if you screw 'em on a little too tight...

It looks good and I think it's going to do the job I was looking for. I appreciate your sales staff in pointing me to this product.

i use this product for skydiving videography, and it is a great lens. high quality glass, looks good on SD and HD, and there is no distortion of the image. after comparing it to some of my older (cheaper) lenses, it has an angle that is almost equivalent to some older (non Raynox) 0.45X lenses. awesome lens, not too cheap but not super expensive either. cons-a just a little too bulky and heavy, but maybe it has to be built like that in order to give the very good quality of the image.

Great for shooting in tighter spaces so you can capture more of the scene.
The included adapter rings fit perfectly. I needed the 43mm adapter to attach to my JVC GZ-HD30U. Now I can get the shots I want without having to stand at the other end of the room.
Couldn't be happier.

i use this lens on my camcorder to video my daughter's basketball games. It gives me a nice wide shot while still letting me stay up close to the action.

The lens really gave me what I wanted in wide angle for my Canon HF100 HD video camcorder. I think it should be standard equipment for most folks especially if you intend to shoot your kids sports for example. I was disappointed in the lens' still performance. Depending on the zoom I caught some rim in the photos and had noticeable bird's eye distortion. It does come with a nice case and various adapters to attach to your camera. It does what I needed for a great price but for stills not so much.

I use this on my Canon HF100 HiDef camcorder. It works great with all zoom settings with no noticable vignetting. Nice clear lens. Great adapter for a modest price. Nice for indoor close quarter shooting.

The wide angle adapter provides just enough additional width. But should watch out at the widest setting.

I just purchased the Raynox HD-5050 PRO 0.5X as a replacement for a Sony wide angle lens lens with 0.6X magnification.The Raynox broadens the angle of view by almost 30%, compared to the Sony, and the optics are razor sharp!I tested the lens at the Jacksonville Zoo, filming in 16X9 format.The Raynox HD-5050 PRO produced sweeping panoramic vistas of the zoo's natural animal habitat exhibits, and maintained full HD quality when zooming in for close-ups of the animal's faces.My Sony Camcorder has a 30 mm front thread, so I am using the 37 mm step up adapter ring included with the lens.Since I am using a step up, as opposed to a step down adapter, I experienced NO vignetting.[...]

THis wide angle lens delivers as promised. I get a super wide and view and a stury metal attachment. It screws on to my UV filter which screws into my sony camcorder. It works great for group shots so that I dont need to tell people to squeeze together and it works really good in small rooms. I am a novice so I cant speak to the quality of the lens but I am happy.

Good product, not good for close up POV shooting ... you need a fisheye lens. That being said it is a good quality product that functions as described. I have nothing to compare it with but is of good build quality, zooms through the entire range with no problem. Would recommend.

I bought the SONY 37/30mm x0.7 WIDE-END CONVERSION LENS as well as this one and I HAVE COMPARED using my SONY HDR CX520. The 0.7x in some conditions not provides a enought wide angle that you will have with this 0.5x. There is no significant image distorsion and you can use all zoom interval. A good money inversion, the lens all cams need, a new world for your images...

Image quality on my Vixia hs10 in full 1060 30p
shooting shows great color, sharpness, and saturation as well with little distortion at the widest setting and no fall off in the corners.
I use it to document social events and does a great job showing large group in big spaces and the activities going on. Also it zooms though the full range of from tight to wide shots with no problems, and great for walking with the camera on a stabelizer

I purchased this conversion lens to use on a Canon HV30.The resolution is terrible- about a 25% reduction in center, a 4 to 5 pixel blur at edges.Severe vignetting, even with all adapters removed.Bad chromatic aboration.Need to use it with out the adapter rings. Result is that the back of the lens rubs against the HV30 shutter.Check out this link: [@] returned it and bought the Canon version. The Canon is not as wide angle, but a good HD lens.

If you want wide, this is the lens to buy.

It does lose some quality, but not enough to not want to buy this lens.

I use this lense for skydiving on an Sony HDR-HC3 and the results so far are excellent.  The ability to keep the quality of HD and focus thru the entire zoom range is critical in my occupation.  Am very impressed with the images shot in HD thru this lens.  It is slightly wider then the last .5x that I used, almost like a .45x with very little to no distorsion.
