 "Request/Complaint SONY VAD-HA Lens Adaptor Ring" 2009-09-16
By Wanda F. Armstrong (Livermore, CA)
I ordered this camera part for a young college student who lives in Brazil. She tried to order the part (which is not available in Brazil) but could not find a supplier who would ship it to her in Brazil, even though she was willing to pay the shipping costs. She is doing photography to help pay college expenses and needed this item. Her part of Brazil, nor her family is wealthy so Silvia works very hard to pay for an education. Aside from doing photography she cleans houses and whatever other work she can find.



I would like to see a more personal side to on-line sellers who would entertain the thought of shipping an item where ever it is needed as a personal service to special circumstance customers. Just add another option to the shipping of your products or merchandise.



Thanks for listening.

 "Disapointed" 2009-07-14
By Peppy (Illinois)
This product appears to be well made and it locks on well to the camera. It will hold a lens, UV filter, etc. HOWEVER, as it tells you in the instructions, with this adaptor ring attached "The AF illuminator and the built-in-flash cannot be used." Also "When using the conversion lens with the filter or protector, a part of the screen may darken." The flash can be used but the adaptor barrel shadows the lower 1/8th of the picture, especially pronounced at wide angle. However, it does not seem to vignette even at wide angle. As yet I have not experienced any problem associated with the obstruction of the AF illuminator. I can NOT believe that Sony would engineer an accessory that diminished the usability of the Sony H20 camera for which it was designed. I would Never have purchased this adapator ring had I known of this problem. The Sony site certainly did NOT mention it.

 "Love the lens" 2009-08-28
By Kathleen
Purchased after reading the other reviews. Some of the reviews were not so positive, but I think the camera works to good, the subject has to be in perfect focus, i get a lot of blurry pictures if im not right on.



Have not used manual focus or changed to many settings. Some of my close ups come out a little dark also.



I had good shots before the tele lens, now im getting even better ones.

 "Also works (with care) on a DSLR!!" 2009-08-05
By Oly Guy (Chattanooga, TN, USA)
I initially bought this little gem a few months ago for a Canon S5IS. It worked well - sharp, clear results at the S5's higher focal lengths with an increase in maximum optical zoom from the built-in 12X to around 20X, without seeming to slow its speed. At the camera's lower focal lengths, below 7X or so, there's a tunneling effect in which the sides of the Sony's tube are visible. But I expected that, and it's hardly a negative. I bought this to increase maximum zoom, not to use at lower focal lengths. Very satisfied!



DSLR Application: I also use an Olympus DSLR with one of its lenses being a 40-150mm kit zoom threaded for 58mm front filters. Hmmmm, I thought, perhaps the Sony VLC-DH1758 might work here as well. Mounting was easy and felt relatively stable. Photo use was outstanding! No tunneling anywhere, sharp clear results with minimal CA, and a nice focal length increase. Auto-focus and metering worked seamlessly in every mode I tried. Since Olympus builds image stabilization into the camera body (not the lens), camera shake wasn't a problem. Finally, though it's not really logical, the speed of the lens actually seemed faster with the converter mounted than without it.



A Few Negatives: 1 -- At full extension, the combination reaches out about 8 inches from the Olympus body and needs a hand under the middle to support it. 2 -- It takes some time to hook everything together. 3 -- It's probably not good to wag it around fast to capture a hunting falcon -- something expensive could break. 4 -- There's no pro or con guidance - I've not seen this potential DSLR application mentioned anywhere.



Bottom Line: For occasional use where higher optical zoom is desired, and fast camera movement isn't needed, I think this could be a nice added application for the Sony tele-conversion lens. It's far from perfect, but especially for folks with a DSLR lens that accepts 58mm filters, it sure beats spending many hundreds of dollars for a new lens with equivalent zoom range if you just need it occasionally. However, if you're a dedicated birder, need OEM ruggedness, or don't want to deal with the risk of something breaking, ignore this suggestion entirely!

 "sony vcl-dh1758 tcon onFujifilm s100fs" 2009-02-10
By Cheryl A. Kaskey
I recently bought this lens for a fuji s100fs camera. It works pretty well on this camera. I had to use a 67-58 step-down adaptor ring for it to adapt on the camera and due to vignetting at the wide angle it is not too useful until I zoom to about 200mm. But from 200-400 it is nice and clear. I have already gotten some real good moon shots with this combination and am looking forward to using it for pictures of birds. It is light enough to not be too heavy on my camera when fully zoomed. It is not advertised for this camera much but it works really well. I think Sony is putting some good glass in these tcons for the money.Fujifilm Finepix S100fs 11.1MP Digital Camera with 14.3x Wide Angle Dual Image Stabilized Optical Zoom

 "Nice lens at a nice price" 2009-02-09
By Mountain Man (California)
I purchased this lens to use on a Canon S5IS. It works very well and I am quite happy with it. I've not noticed any softening or degradation of the images. I highly recommend this lens for use with Canon S series cameras.

 "The sharpest lens in my bag!" 2009-07-17
By Christopher J. Jurado (Oahu Hawai'i)
Things I like:

1. Sharp and great colors! I've been using my kit lens for a while, and I wanted a lens for portraits. The quality of the images make it my preferred lens, and I only resort to my kit zoom lenses during events where I am unable to get close.

2. Light. Agreed that it is mostly plastic, but it is sturdy and looks good. I do not regret this purchase at all due to build quality.

3. Fast! Indoor photos can be shot by hand with natural light due to the large f1.8 aperture. Built in steady shot in every Sony Alpha makes this even better. Shutter speed indoors using just natural light (no flash!) shooting away from the windows can range between 1/8 to 1/120 of a second from ISO 100 to 400. Moving to higher ISO values (which my zooms would have done in order to get similar shots) would probably match the speed, but would have introduced much more noise.

4. Smooth bokeh. None of this hexagonal stuff you see in other lenses.



Things I don't like.

1. AF/MF switch. I have one on my camera, I don't need one on my lens. In order to attain full manual focus I need to swith both the lens and body.

2. 49mm filters. Why not the usual 55mm?

3. Not full frame. If you don't own an A900, and don't ever plan of upgrading to one - this doesn't matter to you.



I would recommend this lens to EVERYONE! It is cheap, and the quality of the images are superb! Furthermore, the fixed focal length forces a photographer to be more aware of how he/she is composing photographs. The lazy method of zooming in and out to fit the subject is no longer applicable. You have to move, and take into consideration objects around the subject. So in the end - you will be a better photographer - or a frustrated one due to the lack of zoom.

 "excellent low light indoor lens." 2009-07-07
By PNFJR (boston)
the sony 50 mm takes excellent pictures indoors if you use the A- aperture setting and dial down to 1/8 great sharp pictures without the need for a flash. But everyone should have a 50 mm in their kit. it is also great for portraits as to the wider aperature. Well worth the money and takes great pictures.

 "A good freebie" 2009-09-13
By Terence Russell (Glen Rose, Texas)
I received this product as a freebie through another purchase. I have already used several of the items contained in the package although the tabletop tripod is worthless unless you have a inexpensive point and shoot camera. I bought one of these at a retailer for a dollar sometime previously and could not even get it to stand stable with a small camcorder. The lens cleaning equipment and the bulb brush have already come in handy!!!!

 "Nice little bundle..." 2009-07-21
By Yorkie Lover
This came free with a lens purchase I made. Not sure I'd buy this, but it's a good little bundle!

 "Looks and feels cheap, but.." 2009-04-09
By Hubie
got it for free from 47th St., and no additional shipping charges, too. :) Tripod is not very reliable - I feel like the camera might tip over anytime. Of course if you have the smaller ones (I have DSLR), this might actually work better. Haven't tried the cleaning solution yet - it might take some more to convince me to try them on my lenses. :)

Came free with the purchase of my flash, but the kit is handy if you don't have cleaners. The screen protectors are flimsy and cheap but what do you expect for the price.

 "Would not recommend" 2009-08-28
By T. Herring (Boise, ID USA)
Bought this lens cap keeper less than four months ago, it has fallen apart.

The adhesive no longer sticks, the string has broken.

The lens keeper I have for my old Nikormat has lasted 30 years, they just don't make them like they use too.

I would not recommend this product at any price.

I would not buy this product again nor would I recommend it. It peeled off the adhesive about a day after I adhered it to my lens.

 "Fell Apart Just Putting It On The Lens" 2009-06-29
By B. Granath (Chicago)
Purchased two of these and the first one fell apart just putting it on the lens. Was trying to figure out the best place to position the strap when the elastic just unravelled! Had to be extra careful attaching the second one. Tried it once and so far so good but should have bought a better one in the first place. Don't buy this junk
