I bought a screw-on wide screen lens and I just found out they are pointless. What I mean is, when you are not zoomed into anything at all you film four sections of the inside of the screw-on wide screen lens and when you playback the footage from that you get rounded shapes on all four corners of the screen. When you zoom in a little the rounded shapes won't appear. What is pointless is, all the screw-on wide screen lens does is makes things appear to be further away in order to fit more at the left and right and also the top and bottom. Getting to the point now about the pointless part. When I zoom in a little to avoid the rounded shapes, what I see on the screen is the same as what I see without the screw-on lens without zooming into anything so the screw-on lens is a waste of time and money, it's pointless. If I'm going to use the screw-on lens and zoom in a little to avoid the rounded shapes, I might as well not use the screw-on lens and keep the zoom zoomed out and send the screw-on lens back to save money. I can still film in wide screen without the screw-on lens but I thought with the screw-on lens I could see more on the screen and I can but it's stupid that it was made where we film four sections of the inside of the screw-on lens. Watching something with those rounded shapes make it look as if I was filming through a porthole. It looked just like that tonight when I played back some footage from when I was filming on a boat on Sunday.
