Canon HV30 0.7x wide converter comparison (read-description)

i got the opportunity to test the tokina converters, so i thought i might as well do a quick comparison with the Canon converters i already have.

The converters in this test is:
Tokina video wide converter 0.7x (comes with a few steprings, i used 46mm for this test just because my canon converter is 46mm)
Canon WD-H46 0.7x (46mm)

(i used a 43-46 stepring to attach them to my 43mm HV30)


Conclusion:
you can see some black edges when using the tokina, but i think it's because i use 2 steprings so it goes out a bit from the camera lens. the canon doesn't make any vignetting at all compared to the tokina. there was a lot mor chromatic aberration with the tokina converter.

i would recommend the Canon WD-H46. i think it costs almost the double, but if you want nice footage, it's worth it!

@kiopu65432 it depends on the size of your lens, but i would recommend getting real lenses for dslr's.

Thanks for taking the time. It's hard to find comparisons of front end accessory wide angle lenses. These seem very similar. If you had used a lower light level and a wider aperture, that might have revealed greater differences in the lenses. Nice to see the old classic test pattern put to good use.

@confetto no problem ^^

Såg helt klart bäst ut med Canon WD.
