Excellent product.
I've tried a couple of adapters now and this is by far the best one yet since the lens markings appear where they should, on top on in sight. Other adapters had the lens markings upside down, ergo a pain to use.Rarely do I use infinity so the inability to set my distance scale to this is occupied no consequence for me. However, you could adopt hyperfocal focusing and utilise your aperture values in an attempt to counteract the potential issue. Me, I'm mostly in a studio and being able to use my Cosina 135 again is bliss.The milling of the adapter appears great though it took me a while to get it fully seated on my Nikon. Once there all was good.Thd deduction of one star really reflects how I feel about the price of this product. It cost me almost the same as a M42 lens I purchased recently.Anyway, it works and causes no mirror knocking from the reflex mirror over my camera.In summary....recommended.

Great bang for the buck!
Awesome little camera!It has the perfect balance between quality, cost and features.I'm very happy with it, especially how wide the lens is.BTW, the mic on the camera isn't very good, so look for a headset or something like that better

Happy with product
I bought this as a gift for my mom who loves it but it is a bit cumbersome with all of the mounts and it takes a lot of finagling to get the cell phone camera lined up perfectly with the lens.

The lens to get!
Great lens. I am not a professional photographer but it takes much better pictures close up than what came with the camera. It also is a lot less bulky when traveling.

Fantastic lens. It's only ever off my camera tempo
Didn't buy it here but this is where I do my review in'. Fantastic lens. It's only ever off my camera temporarily. Don't think twice.

Excellent picture! Nice lens blocker
Very good quality picture! Very nice feature being able to close off lens completely when not wanting to be on camera. Well worth the money for remote workers on meetings.

Very pleased with products. They all fit perfectly on my camera. I have only used a few lens so far. But with what I have used. Love the results.

Best Lens for the Price in ALL of Canon's lineup.
I actually have two of these, it's so important to me. I am a travel photographer and I spend many hours out at night. Night photography taxes the limits of most any equipment from camera bodies to glass. You can see some of my work here - LensTraveler18.com. I have rented and owned approximately 20 of Canon's fast glass in mostly wide angle varieties including the new 17mm T/S and the 24 F1.4 mm lens too.Without hesitation, this lens will match in sharpness and contrast any lens in my bag as long as it's at F4.5 or greater. At F6.7 it's as near perfect as I have found. I do not hesitate to recommend it yet some people have experience softness at wide apertures.Addressing the sharpness issue: There are tolerances in all manufactured products. Scientific, precise products like high resolution camera sensors and the placement/alignment of that sensor and the rear lens element. Even 2 mm off is relatively serious in terms of tolerances. The reason I am mentioning this is because sometimes you get this lens and it appears to be "soft" but it's really at the other end of the tolerance scale when compared to the camera. When you get a lens that "matches" your camera body, the results are startling, as you can tell from the comments on this site. I went through 3 lenses before I "accepted" the 1st one I bought. Some vendors like Amazon and their affiliates are very cooperative in helping you match your camera to your new lens. When you get one, you are going to be very satisfied. My second lens was purchased after an accident which damaged my system, after repair by Canon it came back perfect. Now I have two. And that's come in handy on several trips.It doesn't have Internal Stabilization which is not a problem for me, I use it on a tripod for serious landscapes, both day and night.In summary, this is not a "hobby" lens even though it's not priced like a professional lens. It's a true bargain and will provide very high performance. Don't hesitate to make this part of your system, it will pay you many dividends in amazing photographs.

Great kit, but problematic for thick phone cases o
Though I had problems with the results of my Xenvo wide angle lens, that was attributable to specifics of my phone case. Given everything described below, I still give this lens kit 5 stars.I did extensive research for a quality wide-angle lens for my iPhone XS Max, including reviews of the many lenses available. I did not want the cheap 10-15 item lens kits for $15-20 that would be no more than children’s play sets. I selected the Xenvo Pro Lens Kit. My concern with any lens and attaching clip in addition to its glass/photographic quality is its ability to fit well on the phone in a thicker protective case, in particular the Otterbox Commuter case, which I already have on my phone. I do not want to take the phone out of the case to take photos. From reviews and questions I asked, I thought the Xenvo Pro would be right for me.While the lens, clip and other items in the very good storage case are very well made and very good, and have an excellent warranty, the lip on both sides of the case, designed to protect the phone, did not allow the lens to make full and proper contact with the lens of the phone camera. This caused distortion and vignetting at the ends/corners of the photos. If you use a very thick case or one with a raised ridge or edge, if you don’t care about taking the phone out of the case to take wide angle photos, or if you use a thinner case where the lens makes proper contact with the camera lens, this should not be an issue for you.I corresponded with Xenvo customer service, which was prompt and excellent. The Amazon 30 day return policy had already expired and Xenvo arranged a resolution completely to my satisfaction. I write this as an advisory to those with thicker protective cases or which have ridge edges that could prevent proper coverage of the Xenvo lens over the camera, but to also advise of the excellent customer service of this company.Also, the additional small auxiliary clip-on light that is included in the kit is very good. It provides good skin tones for nearby subjects so it will not be necessary to use the camera flash, which can cause red eye. The results were mixed with how the iPhone red-eye reduction worked for photos with the camera flash, some good, others not. With this little 3-power level included Xenvo light, the flash is not necessary in many situations. Overall the Xenvo Pro kit is a very good buy.
