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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great inexpensive macro lens
Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2024
Once you get the hang of it, this lens will give you great results. Fly eyes come out with excellent sharpness. Example shot is from a Sony a6000 and this lens.
My only gripes are that the listing says it takes a 62mm filter so I purchased one of that size. The lens and box both say 67 and the 62mm is useless. I got the updated version (orange band) with the glass seal in front so it isn't really a worry.
Also the bayonet mount was loose, but tightening the three tiny torx screws tightened it right up and it works flawlessly without the reported wobble that several YouTube reviews mention.
Those are worth mentioning but for a lens of this quality at this price point, I'll over look those two things.
I do wish the aperture adjustment was just a bit looser, but thank goodness it does not have detents! Those would be unacceptable on a manual lens with this kind of magnification level.
Don't forget, the closer you get the less light you get, so you will need more. The way focusing works on this lens is to move it closer and further from the sensor. So think about lighting the same as if you were using extension tubes.

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.

1.0 out of 5 stars Sad experience
Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2024
I purchased this because it was favorably reviewed by reputable websites like PetaPixel. Sadly, when I attached this lens to my Sony a6000. I kept getting a lens error. The Manual Focus Mode would be grayed out and when I tried to select it, I got a lens error saying that Manual Focus was disabled because the lens was not attached properly and to reattach it. I did this at least three times and the error never went away. However, it is impossible to mount it incorrectly. Sony E-mount lenses will only connect one way. I was very careful and gentle with the lens as I mounted it to the camera. When the lens was in the correct position it easily slid into and locked on to the mount on the camera body. After removing it, there was no damage to the lens or the camera mounting area on the body. I tried to take some photos, but indeed, Focus Peking marks never appeared and I was never able to achieve sharp focus on anything.

So, I returned the lens and the seller didn't give me any hassles over the return.
