Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon WD-H43 0.7x Wide Angle Converter for HV Camcorders
Customer Review: you won't regret it
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been using this lens for over a year for overseas travel, and I never take it off. It gives a nice wide angle and makes your shots look just that little more professional.
Features:
- High quality picture on my HV30
- Heavy lens (yes, it is as heavy as the camera itself). However, the extra weight probably helps a little to achieve slightly steadier shots.
- Convenient enough to use while traveling, if you like making nice videos after your travels
Cons/caveats:
- There is a slight barrel distortion/fisheye effect on the outer edges of the frame. Though you only really notice it when filming pillars and buildings. The effect is minimal and shouldn't discourage purchase. From what I understand, this lens is the best you can get for Canon's consumer cameras. Other cheaper lenses apparently have much worse distortion.
- Auto focus really struggles with the lens on. The lens must throw off the camera's ability to correctly judge distance. Many times you will need to dramatically zoom in and out to force the auto focus to adjust. If you're trying to grab a fleeting shot, you have to bear in mind the auto focus problem, and quickly zoom in and out of something to have it adjust.
Overall, I've never used a camera accessory as much as this lens. It stays on the camera the whole time I'm using it.
Description of Canon WD-H43 0.7x Wide Angle Converter for HV Camcorders
The Canon WD-H43 wide-angle adapter lens screws into the front of the HV20's zoom lens to provide a wider perspective of coverage (0.7x) than the original lens. It's use is ideal for those times when you are shooting landscapes and want to increase visual coverage. This conversion lens boosts coverage by about 30 percent.Lens Accessories
