hi, i have a canon vixia hf 200 and was looking to buy the WIDE ANGLE MACRO LENS. so i want your opinion if that would be good to use with my camcorder

[rickvanman]

@petenicezz Sorry, I haven't got a clue. I made this video 3 years ago and am completely out of touch with what's current.

Thanks for the tip. I'm just now crossing over from strictly amateur video (pocket cams) into pro-sumer/entry pro dv, and very nearly got the wrong lense, but thanks to this vid, I'll be more careful. I'll be using Canon Vixia HG-20s in my future vids, so hopefuly, I'll be able to get the right lenses for them. Happy holidays, by the way! :)

@ThomasGrillo You're welcome. Happy Holidays, & great Theramin playing by the way! :o)

@rickvanman I have a question Iam a beginner I got Nikon D3100 with 55-105mm lens 67mm size filter I wanted 2 find 67 mm Macro/wide angle lens but there is an option only for 72mm lens with I think a reversed ring or something 2 attach both of them 2gether..its the only option I got, been trying 2 find 67 but didn't..what do you say?? would this thing work? iam afriad of the black sides do you think they will appear?

Sorry for asking so much but ur vid helps:)

HOPE TO SEE UR ANSWER ASAP:)

[rickvanman]

@Eliana31205 err, haven't gpt a clue, sorry :o(

thats called vig smart one and i dont mind it. Even a 6000 dollar century optics xtreme fisheye will have vignetting along the edges

[istenvik]

idiot...you should remove the macro lens from the wide angle before compare it with other wide angle lens...-.-

[caddyskateboarding]

@anonymous60668 have a look on amazon. rikinon fisheyes are just under $300 and they are really good for the price

[Fediaization]

I've subscribed. Why? I like your t-shirts!

[vetarwyn]

your earlier lens had wide angle of view..... although there was some trouble...

[zmayo30]

heres my solution, dont zoom, i just put it in adobe after effects and crop it out and the widescreen effect it gives it looks great to me, check out my videos if you like to see how it works

[EthylOH]

Rick. I HOPE YOU'RE HAVING A GREAT DAY AS WELL!!!!

[anonymous60668]

whats a good fisheye lens but not to much money for a Canon EOS 7D??? I like the inner ring or vig I don't want to spend more the three hundred

[sprig9an007]

is the better wide angle lens one a giottos brand?

[YIMMA996TT]

But it isnt a wide angle converter, it's a macro converter. It says macro right on it, you tithead

BACK of his shirt says: I am a bomb technician if you see me runnin

g try to keep up. LOL

Just want to tell everyone that I ignored the warnings and bought a cheap Bower adapter for £35 which was fun for 5 minutes but the picture quality soon becomes a real drag. I wish I put that £35 towards a Samyang 8mm which you can now get for £222. Don't make the same mistake unless you like blurry pictures with lots of aberrations!
