Great lens
|
I bought this for my new HDV FX1 Camcorder, and it works great. Unlike the Century wide-angle lens, this is fully zoom-through. Lens is .8x, which is less than the Century and others, but just about right for HD--since the FX1 already can do a pretty decent wide shot when the zoom is fully backed out, this just gives it an extra boost, converting the camera view from roughly a 35mm lens on a 35mm camera to about a 28mm. Also, very little barrel distortion.
In all a great lens. Only drawback is that it's a big (heavy) lens, but then, hey, it's for a serious prosumer camcorder. |
