COMING SOON, RAYNOX REVIEW DCR FE 180 FISHEYE LENS. HERE IS WHAT THE FACTORY SAYS: Shooting a creative image or making the ultra wide angle picture ? The DCR-FE180PRO lens captures an amazing wide angle view of 180 degrees on diagonal lines. It stays in focus during the whole zooming when attached to the zoom lens of less than 4-time variation. It's a completely new high definition lens made of the high index optical lens with a 4-group/5-element formula.

ANSWER: FOR THE LAST 3 MONTHS I HAVE HAD GREAT SUCCESS WITH THE TIFFEN MEGA PLUS 43 2 X AND .75 WIDE ANGLE.

ON THE TELEPHOTO A FEW THINGS ARE IMPORTANT. # 1 USE ISO 200.

USE A TRIPOD IF POSSIBLE AND USE THE 10 SECOND TIMER. DO NOT TAKE ANY SHOTS WITH LARGER THAN F 5. USE THE FULL F 10 OR 11. WIND WILL HAVE A EFFECT ON THE QUALITY OF YOUR PHOTOS, AS IT WILL CAUSE A SLIGHT TRIMMER IN THE TRIPOD. USE THE TRIPOD EXTENDED AS SHORT AS POSSIBLE. DO NOT SHOT FROM A WOOD DECK. HAVE THE SUN OR ANY LIGHT SOURCE BEHIND YOU AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE TO KEEP DIRECT LIGHT FROM HITTING THE LARGE LENS.

IF YOU MUST HAND HOLD THE CAMERA USE A CAMERA GRIP. TRY USING ACTION MODE. EVEN IN THE ACTION MODE THE CAMERA WILL DEFAULT DOWN TO 1/60 OR EVEN SLOWER IN POOR LIGHT CONDITIONS, SO TAKE A DEEP BREATH AND HOLD IT AS YOU PRESS THE SHUTTER BUTTON.

I HAVE NOT USED THE Raynox EQUIPMENT, SO I CANNOT COMMENT ON IT.

I HAVE ALSO HAD A LOT OF MAIL ASKING ABOUT THE SAKAR DC PRODUCTS HP 850 LENS TUBE AND THE ACCESSORY LENS THEY OFFER. I SPOKE TO THEM AND I EXPECT TO SEE THEM IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS.

THK PHOTO DISTRIBUTES THE KENKO LENS AND ALSO A FINE LINE OF NISSIN SLAVE FLASHES.

TOM, FROM CKC POWER, IS SENDING ME THE CrystalVue LX TO DO A REVIEW. IF YOUR ARE NOT IN A HURRY YOU MIGHT WAIT A FEW DAYS AND YOU WILL HAVE ANOTHER OPTION TO CHOOSE FROM. JIM JULY 2003
