Review on πŸ“Έ Pocket 2 and Osmo Pocket Compatible Freewell Wide Angle & Anamorphic Lens with ND Filter by Todd Look

Revainrating 2 out of 5

TOO DARK AND WILL FLY AWAY WHEN OSMO IS TURNED OFF!

what is with the Chinese. They make a thing that sells, and suddenly they all have to sell it. First, it's so obscure that you have to use it in very, very specific circumstances. it is not a diffusion, not a polarizer and not a neutral density. it's barely visible in a lot of light - and I mean STUDIO lighting. But you would know that if you were a professional photographer. The people who buy this usually are NOT. Because it's held in place at the front with a pair of nifty magnets, it quickly rotates the head as soon as you turn the Osmo off, locking it in place so it's pointing down where there's no room for it, and guess what happens ? That's right: it flies onto the street, onto the floor, and if you've ever lost contact lenses that cost so much for one, you'll understand my pain when I tried them for the first time. , you need to get to the table to figure out how to use that absurdly dark lens filter, and also remove it before turning off the camera and placing it. WHERE? case on a postage stamp. And does not require really simple storage space. So what else is there. My opinion? Don't worry and fix whatever you pick up in the post it's free.

Pros
  • High-quality assembly
Cons
  • Requires socket
