Review on Freewell 18mm Wide Angle Lens with Osmo Pocket Compatibility (NOT Compatible with Pocket 2) by Rodney Gonzalez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Definitely a must have for any Osmo Pocket vlogger

This was one of the first wide angle lenses available for the Osmo Pocket and as such earlier models of this lens are said to have been inferior in quality, but my lens is perfect! It pairs beautifully with the existing Osmo Pocket and offers a good wide-angle view with virtually no distortion. In fact, when playing videos, you don't even know that the wide-angle lens is on, it just looks natural to the camera. Camera. This allows me to capture perspectives that would otherwise be limited by the Osmo's original narrow field of view, and also allows my entire head to fit perfectly in the frame without stretching my arm too far. I definitely recommend this lens. Oh, and by the way, the Osmo has undergone an update that allows the camera to be calibrated at launch to account for the weight of that lens. I shot non-stop for 10 minutes and the camera had no problem with the weight of this lens.

Pros
  • - Construction: Made from HD optics for a clear view
Cons
  • Fades out
