 Great lens for what it is. August 16, 2010
Kate Black (NYC)
I am so pleased with this lens! I went into the purchase with realistic expectations. I'm someone who enjoys photography with pinhole and toy cameras, and TTV photography, so I welcome quirks. Bower's sweet little wide angle attachment gives me plenty to play with.
If you think of your Bower wide angle lens as a filter, you will probably be pleased. If you're a cheapskate expecting a $40 screw on lens enhancer to do what a Nikkor extreme wide angle will, you're going to be cranky about this.
On a Nikon D80 with Nikkor 35mm f/1.8 lens, the Bower .45x Super Wide will increase your range of view to about 180degrees. It gets a lot in the image. Only the center area will achieve sharp focus. The edges become moderately to severely blurred. Vignetting is minimal to non-existent if the Bower lens is placed directly on the Nikkor lens. With use of filters, even a standard 52mm UV/haze filter, vignetting starts. Multiple filters? Serious vignettes.
Barrel distortion is pronounced. If your primary lens has any barrel distortion, photos you take with that and the Bower lens will likely look like they were shot in a funhouse mirror. (And that can be a fun effect!)
Autofocus becomes more tricky with the Bower lens. AF is considerably slower and very center-focus oriented. I find it faster to switch to manual mode when using this lens.
If you're looking for a fun toy and you have a sense of humor about your images, this is a great buy. If you demand clarity and integrity, save your money and buy real wide angle from Nikon.
