.55X Wide Angle Reversible Adapter with 58mm Threads

The .55X WAA offers a single-element design of negligible size and weight. This new adapter nearly doubles the angle of view and it allows close focusing - right up to the lens front - on many camcorders. When this adapter is attached, the angle of view is increased by 45%. Although technically a fixed wide-angle adapter, the ability of many cameras to autofocus in macro mode allows this adapter to partially zoom at the wide-angle end of the lens.
