 DO NOT BUY!!!!!! September 26, 2008

I've utilized numerous Sony products over the years and have always been pleased with the design and delivery.
This would not be one of those times.
The DSC-H5 camera is basically incompatible with this lens. I say this as it casts a LARGE shadow on any flash pic on any setting. In essence you can't use your lens for indoor flash or flash photography in general.
This lens should not be sold and Sony should be ashamed. This is how you ruin a brand name.
DO NOT BUY!
And yes - I read other reviews, but they don't come close to describing how enormous the grapefruit shadow is. Renders the photo unusuable.
Again --
DO NOT BUY!!!!!!!!!!

It is a good lens. Close-ups don't get much wider, but it is very good for landscapes.
The front protection cover could be more tight, so it would not fall so easy.
The transport bag is good too.
Just what you expect May 26, 2008

This wide angle conversion lens does just what you'd expect it to. Regarding a few of the reviews that say it doesn't add that much, maybe the operators didn't have the conversion settings switched properly in the Camera Menu. On a recent trip to the Southwest, the added area was very noticeable. Just sitting in my living room and aiming at the same point with and without the less gives a tangible result.
It's true that the lens does block the bottom portion of the flash, but knowing that, adjust your shot accordingly. Also, your zooming is limited with this lens attached, so don't expect to use the full 12x optical of the H5 without removing it.
I am very pleased with this lens.
 not good for interiors February 28, 2008

I read a review of this product before buy it, about interiors photo using flash; that customer was correct, you`ll see a shadow on the floor(half an orange), this is the shadow of the lens.I think this problem can be solved attaching a flash that come out far from the camera, no matter up or side.My camera is a Sony Cybershot DSC-H2 6MP Digital Camera with 12x Optical Image Stabilization Zoom, great camera!In fact this lens is good, you`ll see a wider field but consider other than the built in flash for interiors, when flash is needed of course.
