Wide Angle Macro Wide Grin

Last minute purchase, I set up an advert on clubsnap, WTB any type of wide angle converter for 58mm thread and got few responses. I settled for a Vitacom 0.45X/Macro 58mm with this lady from Yew Tee cos she had a brand new, unused lens and selling far below my expected price range. Pure luck and tried exploring it’s capabilities, was definitely satisfied.

The photos were slightly distorted, elongated and curved just nice, too much would be too abstract for me. Gee and Ipin, rezeki pengantin baru cos I shall use the lens to capture your solemnization in a few hours time. Overall, PUAS HATI ah!
