    Hi,
    I use a Century Optics Wide Angle Converter for my HDV videocamera.
    Inadvertently I have scratched the frontal lens. Century will replace
    it and I have to spend 260$ (shipped included) . In your opinion will
    I be satisfied or is it better to buy a new Wide Angle Converter?
    I am worried to spend money uselessly.
    Thanks for your suggestions.

    But Sony has made a better Wide Angle Converter, that Sony VCL-HG0862
    and Century was not able to make with Century 0HD-65CV-SH6.
    A friend on mine has both and he have just told me Century Wide Angle
    Converter deteriorates much more the image than Sony VCL-HG0862.
    He was very surprised!
    thanks

    Why did you ask a question then want an answer to a question that you
    hadn't asked?

    Are you a bit mental?

    So why are you not taking the advice of your friend?

    Beacuse I never have seen a Wide Angle Converter so bad by Century.
    Yes .. a little bit and I enjoy for it.
    Because he has just given it.

    All you mentioned in your original question was that you had scratched
    it. You didn't make any comment about its quality. I doubt if there
    are any clairvoyants in this newsgroup. They tend to hang out elsewhere...
    ~Good for you.. so am I.
    I don't think you'll find a better source than someone you know who owns
    two WACs that can provide you with demonstrative evidence. Much better
    than a load of faceless fucknuts on the interweb. Non?
