Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I had my eye on this lens set for a week before I decided to go ahead and give it a shot. I had my doubts after reading some of the reviews and also because of the price (pretty cheap compared to the $1000 sets I see selling on Amazon) but after testing out all the included parts I can say without a doubt this was definitely a great buy. I highly recommend this kit for anyone who wants to have fun with their cameras without spending a fortune. For beginners this kit works cause its definitely not worth spending tons of money for a lens you don't know how to use. For more advanced photographers I think these items work in occasions where you just don't want to carry a heavy or super expensive lens (like when hiking outdoors or traveling abroad). LENSES: The lenses are MUCH better than I would have expected for the price. The wide angle itself is worth the cost of the kit alone. I am NOT saying these are the same quality as $400 brand name professional lenses, but I do think that these lenses are more than good enough for beginners to more advanced photographers for the price. I am a photography enthusiast that doesn't have the money to spend on professional equipment so I am happy. Lenses were well built, high quality looking and even came in protective pouches. I used the wide angle to get some great group shots and was very pleased with the results. I was able to fit almost twice as much into my shot compared to no wide angle. The telephoto zoom added a nice little effect, not too much, but for the price it was still nice to have. FILTERS: Filters fit perfectly and worked as advertised. Very satisfied! MACRO FILTER KIT: These filters looked and felt like quality products. The wide angle lens also come with a detachable macro lens that allows for amazing close up macro photos. I will post some of my photos here this weekend. These macro filters work more like magnifying lenses and can be stacked one on top of the other to take high detail shots of flowers or coins or whatever. LENS HOOD: No surprises here. I've owned plenty of lens hoods in my time. Not original Canon brand but well made, sturdy, and gets the job done. (Definitely not worth paying for a name brand hood.) CLEANING SUPPLIES: Like others reviewers have said, a nice little bonus. The microfibers were awesome. Came individually wrapped. They are much better than the free microfibers I get from my optometrist. I used them on my Iphone and Ipad. RING ADAPTERS: This kit fit my 58mm Canon EF-S 18-55mm lens like a charm so I have no need for the adapter rings at the moment but they are nice to have in case I need them in the future. They are made of metal and are lightweight. All in all, very happy with the purchase. I was not looking to spend too much money and for less than $100 this was a bargain by any standard. The entire ordering process was a breeze. I received my package in 4 days and it even included a hand signed note from the owner of the company guaranteeing 100% satisfaction. Nice products, awesome service and a reasonable price. I give this kit 5 stars. (I have to say one more thing: to buy a set of lenses and filters like this and judge them negatively the way some of the other reviewers have done I think is just being unfair and not helpful to everyone else. I almost did not buy it cause of the few negative reviews but I'm glad I did cause I got more than what I paid for. If you want professional lenses then don't buy this set. This kit is great FOR THE PRICE!) Hope my review helped!
