 Stupendous! June 4, 2008

I am very pleased with the Opteka lens. I've been having a ball taking photos of birds in our backyard. I'm completely satisified with the product, and wouldn't hesitate to make a purchase from the same company again. Can't wait to try it on some scenery when we're on vacation!

I was let down by this lens. I own a Kodak Z712 IS and I love the camera. This lens just doesn't do the job though. Sure, it improves your zoom, but that's about it. On the Opteka site it says that this lens actually IMPROVES picture quality. Wrong! First off, you need a tripod or your pictures will turn out fuzzy most of the time. Second, every pic I've taken looks like I took it through a window. Would you want to take pictures of subject in your yard from inside your house and through a closed window? Not me, and that's what my pictures look like. My camera's pictures come out much better without the lens. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I don't think so. I followed the directions. Too bad, because the lens sure looks good on my camera. I didn't give it one star because it does actually improve your zoom capabilities.

Great product, I tested it with Kodak Easyshare Z612 and my wife's Z712 IS and it worked excellent in both cameras. You must to know a little bit about photography and also have talent to get that shot. It is a good product and takes little time to get familiarized with it.

I own the Kodak Easyshare Z812IS and I bought this lens because I wanted
more zoom out of my camera. And just like the description it really does double the zoom on your camera. I originally had a 12x optical without the lens but when I put it on, it brought my camera to a 26x optical because it a 2.2 converter. It came with the adapter and lens covers and also a leather case for the lens which is nice! Very great lens for the price I payed. Took many pictures and love it! It takes clear and high depth pictures. Very pleased with lens.
Works well with Z812 IS March 28, 2008

This lens really does double the zoom on my camera!!!! This means that my 12x optical zoom is taken to an 24x or more ,since its 2.2 and not 2.0 (so this should take it to aprox. 26x) .
Tested it with and without and the pictures come out very clear and clean as if the lens was off. And of course U can see the far away object is biger with optical zoom clarity.
And let me add that U do not need a tripod in all cases since the cammera`s stabilazer helps a lot (this applys only in some optical zoom situtations, but when U put digital zoom, U defenetly need a tripod).
And about what the other reviewer said on this lens that its like having a picture taken and then zooming it in the computer so U get less things around the subject well... That is what the Telephoto lens is for!!!! To take subjects from far away with optical clarity without worrying about the field of view around the subject.
I wasnt too sure on buying this lens in the beggining thinking it would take clarity away. So I bought this one instead of the 3.2x Telephoto lens of the same brand just to try it out.Now Im regreting not buying the 3.2x telephoto lens by opteka, which triples the optical capability of the cammera ;-)
