Opteka .35x HD² Super Wide Angle Panoramic Macro Fisheye Lens for Canon EOS / EF

As mentioned before, this is not a lens, it’s a conversion lens.I purchased this to use on the kit 18-55mm lens on my Canon Rebel XT. The kit lens on the camera is pretty decent, but not worth buying a ridiculously priced conversion lens… not to mention, buying a nice Canon fisheye is way out [...]

I bought the Canon 12×36 almost 2 years ago based mostly on my respect for the Canon L lenses with internal stabilization that I use on a [...]

Canon PowerShot SD980IS 12MP Digital Camera with 5x Ultra Wide Angle Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 3-inch LCD

The SD980 camera is pretty small, and will fit in almost any pocket. Because it doesn’t have any significant protrusions, it is easy to take it out of the pocket without accidentally pulling out other things as well. It feels good in the hand, and I personally don’t have a problem with the lack of [...]
