Nikon Wide Angle Adapter Lens [Posted on 2007-11-25] The lens quality is excellent, especially for an adapter. But I would expect no less from Nikon. My only criticism is that the theoretical 35mm film equivalent result should have been just under a 24mm lens. However, the actual results seem to be not as wide as that, but somewhere just a bit wider than a 28mm lens.
Great addition [Posted on 2008-01-02] The lens works well If you don,t use the cameras on board flash.The length of the lens gets in the way of the flash.I purchased a SB400 and It does just fine.If your going to mount a 52mm filter make It a thin one,regular filters will vignett.All In all I think It's a good addition If you shoot wide.
good piece of equipment for a non-professional [Posted on 2008-05-08] I'm not a professional photographer by any means, and I haven't even read Photography for Dummies. I just want to take some better pictures, and I wanted to get some lenses for my camera so that I can take the ones I want when the opportunity arises. So far, I have been impressed with the camera I have - the Coolpix P5000, and this lens. I have nothing to compare it to, since I'm a novice at the finer things of photography, but it has great focus and the wide angle conversion is clear and quite crisp. I'm a teacher; it gets my whole class in while I'm still inside the door. My classroom is pretty small, though my class is not, so I'm impressed! :)
The Original Nikon lens is worth youth money [Posted on 2008-08-03] I bought a "parallel" make of the wide-angle lens for my coolpix P5100. I claimed to have very good optics , multi-coated, etc etc. Seemed like a good deal. It "seemed" cheaper too.
However, the image quality left much to be desired, because the images taken with the wide-angle would get qutie blurred at the edges, because the lens was poorly made. AS a result, you get a wide-angled image but you are unable to have clear definition on about 30-40% of the photograph. That's not worth it at all!
Instead, the Nikon original is perfectly fitted for the P5100. The Wide-angle function enabled on the Nikon gives a visible distortion correction for the wide-angle converter, and remains clear even at the edges.
I can only say its worth it to buy the original. Don't be fooled by the cheaper imitations.
