Worth It!
2009-04-09If you buy the camera - buy the goodies while they are available. Sturdy build. A must for your gadget bag.
a must have item
2009-02-11i think this is a must have item if you dont want to be annoyed by how close the original setting... the auto focus with this lense is great
but its big and wont fit in most small handycam small cases.
Great for hi Def
2009-01-31I previously bought a cheaper 2 element Sony lens for my Canon Vixia HF10 HD camcorder but it was fuzzy around the edges and had barrel distortion. This lens gives superb results and the 0.7 wide angle is enough to use indoors without distortion. When will the camcorder makers, especially HD which is formatted for wide angle scenic viewing realize we don't care about 480X zoom and want to be able to fit a normal room in our screen? In the meantime this lens is great.

Portable professional cameras are generally much larger than consumer cameras and are designed to be carried on the shoulder.
Technology

View Finder - A small eyepiece or screen on the camera that allows you to see the image you're recording. (The camera also acts as a VCR, so you can play back and watch what you have already recorded through the view finder).
White Balance - If you ever ended up with yellow-tinted video, chances are you forgot to white balance. It's worthwhile to white balance every time you use your camera to get the highest quality video. If your camera doesn't have this feature, it may have an automatic or internal system. What white balancing does is adjust the intensity of the colors being recorded according to the existing light. Make sure you white balance every time the lighting conditions change; if you record video inside and then go outside, your lighting conditions have changed and you need to instruc ...
