I got this to film the high school marching band. The various size mounting rings made it easy to fit on my camcorder. I found that it distorts a lot on the edges with the lens on. For the money I would find something else- stay away from this brand.
What's great about it: Various mounting sizes
What's not so great: Lots of distortion on edges
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

im a skater and bought this for my JVC camera. it fits almost every camera and is nice. it looks like you are standing away but really is close. YOU SHOULD GET THIS FOR ONLY $40! just touch the lens, but you shouldnt do that anyway... GET IT
What's great about it: its nice for skaters and it widens easily. you also can look up how to turn it into a fisheye
What's not so great: just dont touch the lens!
I would recommend this to a friend!

So i was expecting to have more of a fish eye lens, but this lens kind of just widens the image. I should have done more research on what sort of lens to get, but oh well. It's fine if you want more of a view, just not what i was hoping for
What's great about it: ease of use
What's not so great: n/a
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I purchased this lens and the Sony lens in the same trip to compare the two. The Sony model worked better for about the same price. I kept the Sony lens and returned the Sunpak one.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

With provided adapters it'll fit most any camcorder with lens threading and provide a nice wider than normal view for minimal investment.
However, it turns out that image quality degrades quickly from the edges inward as you zoom in leaving you with a sharp center circle and all else has gone soft. A nice effect if thats what you're after.
I returned mine and got the SONY wide angle adapter and though not as wide and you can not use entire zoom range with SONY lens attached the quality is a noticeable improvement over the Sunpak
What's great about it: inexpensive, fun to use
What's not so great: not sharp corner to corner
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
