I love it so far! in camera lenses

Like it so far, but they add a bit of weight to the camera, and it's also annoying when you have to remove the glue when you get a new Sony ZV 1 camera. Overall great!

Pros
  • even the old ones can understand
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Revainrating 4 out of 5

quite heavy.: Lenses for cameras

All good but too heavy. If you use this for videos with stabilizer. Due to its weight, it is difficult to balance. This is kind of the overly blurry side of the video. Overall it's ok for light use. :)

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Not fashionable

GO OUT AND BUY NOW!

This is an absolute MUST for the Sony ZV-1. This is how it should have been from the factory! Not only does this significantly increase the depth of field, but it also adds a certain cinematic look that takes the usual composition to a new level. Highly recommended!

Pros
  • Fits many
Cons
  • legacy models

Great adapter if you're staying away from the edge.

This wide angle adapter is used in my camera for many indoor shots. I've even used it in interviews. Everything is very durable and the glass is good. In terms of image quality, be sure to keep your subject close to the center - this lens softens the edges quite a bit. All in all a solid part to go with my ZV-1.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Not as good as advertised

Pretty cool addition, good for camera and photo

I haven't had this for a very long time but it took me a few days to put it on as I didn't trust the little sticker ring. So far it's pretty solid. Not sure I'll leave it in direct heat for too long, just in case. The lens itself is very good. I haven't learned everything about the ZV-1 yet, but it never ceases to amaze me. Many people say that you have to unscrew the lens before and after turning the camera on to keep the motors running. I think it's more like good insurance. Overall I think…

Pros
  • Comfortable
Cons
  • Thin

The 52mm variable ND filter is NOT compatible with this lens!

52mm variable ND filter is NOT compatible with this lens. I tried to contact Ulanzi with 3 different emails that were on their SUPPORT page. All emails were NOT DELIVERED! I tried to contact: Service Department; marketing department; and finally the owner, but all my emails were bounced because none of the email addresses worked! I just wanted to know what size variable ND filter I should buy for this lens. God forbid something happens to that lens and you need to contact Ulanzi. As has already

Pros
  • Good value for money
Cons
  • Good but not great

Sony ZV-1 could be wider

One of the downsides of the Sony ZV-1 is that 24mm focal length is not enough for vlogging. I suppose it really comes down to personal style/preferences. For those who say 24mm is not enough, the ULANZI WL-1 wide-angle lens brings you a focal length of 18mm. Before using the lens, I was concerned that the various autofocus functions of the Sony ZV-1 could be overridden with the WL-1 installed. However, after working with the lens for several days, I could not find any functional deviations. The

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Poorly tuned
