Hi all...
I have the GL-V0752 (on my GY-DV301E), it's the JVC 0.7x Wide Conversion lens. It's great - I shot the whole of my short Tender Words with it, and was very happy with results.
When in extreme close-up it gave a nice 'not-quite-fish-eye' sweaty/freaky look for the lead actor. I was also shooting in a toilet cubicle, so it was great for getting the shots I needed with so little space.
When shooting longer shots, it gave a very slight curvature to straight lines, walls etc on the edge of the frame - the look was perfect.
Buy one, you won't regret it... although it does mean you have 3 lens surfaces to keep clean instead of 1!!

I got both. To be onest, they're quiete good and robust, altought I'm not a pro, sometimes I forgot to take it off and I get bad light in my shots.
I made one in Pompei some days ago, and I forgot to take off the wide....bad result.
I have to say that even the wide than the tele (GL-V0752 and the GL-V1452UP) do not look good on the camera body. Too different design.
By the way, somebody could suggest me a filter for 52 mm? :cool:
