Summary The Red Eye is at its best when used as a non-zoomed adapter for moving Steadycam-type shots, expansive static shots in tight spaces and panoramic scenic shots. It’s easy to use, affordable, well built and performs well.
Target Apps
Any application where a wider field of view is desired and full zoom-through isn’t needed
What It Costs You
Pricing starts at $380 for 72mm Aspheric.7x (see Red Eye’s North American dealer, VF Gadgets, below, for more options)
What's Cool
Being able to simply screw on a lightweight, filter-sized adapter that increases field of view while retaining optical quality
What's Missing
Full zoom-through features, though that’s to be expected with an aspheric wide-angle adapter

How many times have you thought while busy shooting a project, "If only I could get a wider field of view for this shot?" Then you think about the cost of wide converter lenses and how they’ll make your camera front-heavy. No doubt there are situations where a full zoom-through wide converter is a "must have," but for wider angle, non-zooming camera moves, partial zoom and static shots there’s a cost-effective solution: Red Eye Wide Angle Adapters.
