Something I picked up after some considerations, but I would still say it was an impulsive buy.. (Haven’t field tested it yet, but so far, I’m pretty happy with the result. )
Came across it from [Photojojo], a site dedicated to all kinds of camera related gadgets. 
Aside from the adapter, they gave me this:
↑ Not specific function, but definitely makes me remember the brand more. Photojojo’s known for their down to earth language and friendly customer support. Details like this can go a long way. Thumbs up!
I know Photojojo source a lot of its products from the outside, so it’s no surprise that this lens adapter product’s from a 3rd party company – this case, by [Opteka]. 
↑You can actually purchase this directly via [Opteka’s official site] for a slightly cheaper price.
With an extra $5, I bought the adapter ring so I can use this gadget on my 24-85 travel lens:
Came with a cool looking bag – synthetic leather, I’m guessing. 
The quality of the lens looks pretty solid. Aluminum type of metal finish (Unlike the plastic for the 50mm f1.8.) Light, but still has its weight of a firm product. This is a 2 in 1 lens adapter that can be attach to existing lenses (comes in different sizes.) 
↑ It can be served as macro
..and wide angle. 
Quick size reference: 
↑Compare to soap a magic mouse.
↑When attach to a 50mm. Not exactly cohesive (would be nice if were in black), but tolerable.
The cap was a bit funky, too, so I added the one of my stickers (will be available shortly.) 
Here are some sample shots: 
↑ 50mm’s a prime lens, meaning it cannot zoom in or out – 50mm can be somewhat of an awkward range especially for a cropped camera like the Canon 400D to the now 600D.
↑It’s a .45x wide angle, so the 50mm is now working like 23mm. (on a cropped camera)
With the Macro:
The top part of the adapter can be twisted off to make it the macro lens. 
↑The Apple logo on the magic mouse.
More sample shots. 
Overall, I really enjoy this new gadget! With less than $60, you can add a couple more features to one of your existing lenses.
Update:
I didn’t pay too much attention until my friend [Cody] mentioned it – When zoomed in, you can notice some color variations along the borders of an object – there’s a term for it, don’t remember at the moment.
I still think it’s a good add on for general purposes, but if you’re professional photographer that would like to blow up your photos to make prints, invest in lenses.
’til next time,
