    5.0 out of 5 stars Fisheye Lens on a Modest Budget
    Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2024
    This is the best low-budget fisheye lens I have ever tried for any camera.

    The construction is solid. It's a bit heavier than the kit lens that came with my Canon M100, but much much lighter than a telephoto zoom. The lens comes with a brief manual, a sturdy gift box for storage, and a lens cap. It's a full frame fisheye, with some softness on the edges of the picture that isn't noticeable on a small screen but will be noticeable if the photo is shown on a large monitor or printed out. This should be fine for many hobbyists' purposes.

    Yes, it requires manual focusing, so if you're strictly into auto-focus and auto-exposure you will likely feel adrift very quickly. The manufacturers recognize this and provide some help in their manual on how to set up your digital camera to accept manual focus lenses and how to focus the lens, so that takes care of the focusing issue. But if you have a basic understanding of how shutter speeds and ISO work together to create a properly exposed photograph (which is beyond what the manual provides), you're going to have a lot of fun using this lens.

    I’m impressed with this lens. Its build is sturdy, and it's manual focus but easy to use. I only gave it four stars because some grease was leaking from it.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Almost Perfect Macro Lens!
    Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2022
    I just got a refurbished Canon EOS m200 and attached this Brightin Star 60mm Macro Lens to it, I spent about half an hour in my backyard and took the attached photos with it. It is incredible value for the money, I would have rated this a PERFECT lens, though it has one major drawback. The lens I received did not have a front lens that would protect its internals from dust/sand. I've seen some YouTube reviews that included one, so I am bummed that this one didn't include it. I know I need to order one now, but I just don't know what it's called or what size I would need (this is my first camera!). Then this lens would be AMAZING! If you purchase this lens, make sure to buy that accessory and you'll be all set to take incredibly high-quality macro photos for a very reasonable price!

    Edit: I just ordered and received a Tiffen 62mm UV Protector Filter, it cost under $10 and fits this lens perfectly, it even has threads on both sides so you can still use your lens cap!

    Edit2: After owning this lens for 8 months, I can say the lens has held up very well. I have also added 3 more pictures to my initial review. Even though the product page states 19cm for focal distance, I have gone far closer while using focus stacking software with it. This has been an outstanding first macro lens for me and I am a solid fan of Brightin Star's products now.

    I am impressed with the clarity and colors produced by this lens. Also, there is very little fish eye distortion and it produces a nice wide view for my micro four thirds camera.

    5.0 out of 5 stars One hell of a Macro lens
    Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2024
    If you got the 7artisans 60mm macro this feels like a direct upgrade to it.

    You can focus from infinity down to 2x macro magnification, which means that focusing on this is a little trickier; but you’re rewarded with sharper images, a lighter body to handle, and a lens that stays the same size instead of telescoping out.

    2x macro is amazing and you’re able to capture so much detail. Truly a beauty

    The shutter would not work. Even with manual focus and shutter, it would not take a photo. Don’t waste your time if you have a Canon EOS M200

    2.0 out of 5 stars Suction brings dust
    Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2024
    The media could not be loaded.
    Couple things you need to know you need a lot of light and I’m talking full sunlight and a flash, and I ended up making the flash hood to pinpoint the light just like the AK diffuser.

    When it works, it works very well.. unfortunately all the mechanics are inside lens. It does not telephoto in and out when you zoom so all the mechanics are inside the lens so when you zoom in and out air gets inside somewhere, and they obviously did not pay attention to how big of dust particles get inside the lens and not to mention the glass spins so maybe I got a bad one, but I returned it so just some things to look out for.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Works well with practice
    Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2024
    Let me just start off by saying how beautifully close you can get with this lens. You’ll be seeing things you didn’t even know existed. It’s easily the most entertaining and exciting thing to spend your afternoon doing.

    It does take some getting used to, though. The field of focus is very tight, so you have one area that is incredibly clear and the rest will be blurred out. This means steady hands and/or a tripod set up. It also means you can miss some things unless you zoom out to capture the entire subject. You need to figure out exactly what you want to focus on and stick to it. This is not a lens for snapping quick photos, it’s a precision lens. It’s made for manual focus, patience, and sitting super still while intently staring at tiny objects.

    The build feels very sturdy, and the focus and aperture are super smooth.

    One other note I’d like to mention is that the lens is heavy. Very heavy compared to my other lenses. Be ready to keep a good grip on it to limit the weight pulling on the camera.
