Sony VCLHA07A Wide Conversion LensDecember 4, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This lens worked as expected for a very reasonable price. There is some slight distortion at the edges, but not much at all. It seems to be built very well and even comes with a nice soft carrying case. Overall, a great product.
No too much as expectedDecember 4, 2007 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
The magnification of this lens is only 0.7 I.e. if you are away from the target object 10 Meter it will gave you the effect as you away 13 meter. Some time it takes one or two seconds to the focus to adjusted automatically when using the lens with zoom

I also have a Sony DCR-SR300 and the lens fits on perfectly and does not have any distortion. I took some pictures to compare the size difference. I stood about 10 feet away from the wall and wasn't quite able to capture my entire double wide window. With the lens on, I was able to get the window and about 1.5 feet on either side of it. For an indoor space, this was perfect for me. Especially considering the cheaper price of this lens. I don't know camera equipment well enough to know what the 200 dollar version gets you. I compared the picture quality of the video with and without the lens...didn't notice anything difference about it.
To note, it does come with cap covers as well and a bag. When it's not screwed onto your camera you'll have covers for both ends. Also, on some camcorders it may disable the flash (it does on the DCR-SR300) which is a shame since I want to be able to take pictures with it on. Though, when I did take a picture using the SR300 6.1 MP capacity the shot came out grainy (due to wide angle lens interference).

I wish amazon had a 4.5 rating for this product because that is what i would give it. The lens fits right on my Sony DSR-300 video camera with no problems. The lens is distortion free (with some wide-angle lenses the corners can be distorted). It does give a wider angle for the camera but not as wide as i expected. The lens works great for those tight angles inside houses. I do filming for a church camp similar to habitat for humanity and it was difficult to film construction in tight spaces like closets and small bathrooms. This lens helped out in letting me get better filming of those spaces. I wish it was a little wider but i guess it would have been distorted that way. For the price it is hard to beat compared to third party models. It worked for me and I would totally recommend it to anyone who is interested in a distortion free wide angle lens.
