● Set the camera's f-stop at F/2.8 when used with Canon HV30/HV20/HG10/HR10 camera.Taking
an image when the camera's aperture opening of F3.4 or slower than F3.4
may increase vignetting.(darkening corners of image.) Click and see the actual images taken with the HV20 camera.
● Vignetting may appear when used with Panasonic HDC-SD1, HDC-DX1 camera. Click and see the actual images taken with the HDC-SD1 camera. Remove camera's front ring before you mount the lens.
● Remove camera's lens hood first when used with Panasonic HD cameras.
● The 3.0x Telephoto Lens is a precision optical instrument, assembled with
critical alignment tolerance. Do not subject it to severe shock and to
the conditions of excessive cold, heat or humidity.
● The built-in flash cannot be used when the Telephoto lens is attached.
Otherwise, it will create a shadow of the lens on the picture.
● When the Telephoto lens is attached, the remote control system of the
camera may not function properly. We recommend trying a rehearsal shooting
if you have to use the remote control system, to make sure.

Lens before moving the camera and Do not carry around the camera with the
HDP-7700ES Telephoto lens attached.
● The HDP-7700ES Lens is designed for using at the telephoto end of the
camera lens, and it may create a vignetting effect (darkened corners) when
zoomed to the wide angle range.
● Please note that the minimum focusing distance with the HDP-7700ES Lens
attached will be approximately 9 times more of the original distance figured
at the telephoto end. We recommend to use a sturdy tripod when shooting
with HDP-7700ES lens on.
● You may aware of the lower magnifying power at a shooting distance of
50 meters or less, with HDP-7700ES lens attached on. It could be less than
2.8 times.
● The specifications and cosmetic designs may change without a notice.
● There will be no influence on the original F-number of the camera when
HDP-7700ES lens is on. It remains the original F-number of the camera lens. ● Screw-thread pitch size is 0.75mm unless mentioned. ●Exposing the conversion lens to a warm atmosphere in an instant way from the cold area may create some dew on and inside the lens. When it happened inside the lens, keep the lens in a dry area till the dew disappear before using. Repeating such may leave dirt spot - (mildew) and affect the image. ●All of Raynox conversion lenses are proudly made in Japan. At our owned manufacturing subsidiary, every stage of production is rigorously checked and tested so that the lens elements compensate effectively for astigmatism, distortion and spherical aberration.... for an excellent image quality. ●The lens is neither made for dust-free nor moisture/water-proof.
