Comments about Century Precision Optics 0HD-08CV-AG 0.8x Wide Angle Adapter Lens:
I'm a full time Emmy Award winning video journalist in a top five market and I'm using this lens on my Panasonic 160. The camera already has the widest lens in it's category and this just sweetens the picture that much more. I shoot a lot on top of bridges in the Bay area and the photography looks stunning with this lens.
The negatives: You need to buy a sunshade.....and now I need to invest in some expensive filters.
