wide angle is the most overused gimmick in porn and few people even know how to use it properly.

Generally speaking its bad for hand held video shots unless the shot is of a more panoramic nature.

IF you get one get a good one that doesnt vignette on your camera...that means at the widest setting you dont see black around the edges.

never use it for anything close up...that distorts your model in very ugly ways.

Consider using a 16:9 mode if your camera has one thats a FAR better alternative.

hit me up DWB Im headed to yer area at the end of July.
