Customer Review: Konica Minolta Wide Angle Lens for Z3 and Z5
Summary: 2 Stars
This lens has several issues:
1) Bright lights cause vertical streaks across the field of view due to internal reflections.
2) This lens has no threads for filters. I usually use a protective UV filter to prevent the lens from getting scratched.
3) I noticed some pincushion at the edge of the field of view.
If I am carefull how I frame the scene avoiding bright light sources directly in the fov (lamps, light bulbs) you can take some good pictures. The camera when notified of the wide angle lens does not allow any zooming and sets the Z3's zoom lens to fixed position. This seems to minimize the pincushion at the edges of the field.
I give this product a 2 stars out of 5 rating. Internal reflections should be avoidable with proper optics design. Threads for filters is a feature I do miss.
