Specifications


The lens shade will cut an unwanted light beam,
and it reduces flare and ghost image effect considerably.

With HDP-9000EX lens on, there will be a darkening at corners (vignetting) when the camera is zoomed towards wide angle side, though the starting point of darkening may vary depending on the camera in use. For example, with Sony HDR-FX1/HVR-Z1 it does not occur between 6x and 12x zoom area, and with Canon XL-1/XL-2, XL-H1 20x zoom it will be between 5 to 20x. The 'vignetting' means the darkened corners on the picture, and it may happen with only at one corner or two or all four, depending upon the characteristics of the camera in use.

It's reasonable with HD-FXR180 lens to have the corners vignetting, in this design formula when set at the widest angle position of the zoom, to achieve a diagonal 180 degrees coverage in the Over-Scanning system (like TV Monitor) or Under-Scanning (PC Monitor). If the vignetting on TV monitor concerns you, it can be eliminated by zooming the lens toward telephoto while carefully watching on LCD monitor. When the unwanted vignetting appears on the PC monitor in Under-Scanning system, please refer to the instructions in the "Zooming Position" of Animation. Shooting in 4:3 DV mode may not achieve a diagonal 180 degrees coverage in the Over-Scanning system (like TV Monitor) or Under-Scanning (PC Monitor). No vignetting effect may appear in 4:3 DV mode.
Note; " vignetting " means the effect of darkened corner or a corners of picture taken. An appearance or degree of vignetting is basically effected depending upon the technical characteristic of the camera in use.

The cosmetic designs may change without prior notice.
Remote control function may not work properly with conversion lens attached.
The HDP-9000EX lens is rather heavy stuff and may limit the way of shooting condition. Be careful in handling the camera with the lens attached, such as supporting or protecting the lens by your own hand at all time while shooting images.
There will be no reduction of light value(F-number) when these conversion lenses are attached on the camera's lens(Except DCR-5320PRO, DCR-150, DCR-250, MSN-202 and MSN-505 macro lenses.)
Depending upon the condition of shooting, especially when the lighting is not bright enough, there may be possibility of creating a flare effect which reduces the image quality. When the conversion lens is attached, please make sure that the object is under the bright condition.
Raynox telephoto conversion lenses were designed to use at maximum Telephoto position of  camera's zoom lens.
Raynox wideangle conversion lenses were designed to use at maximum wideangle position of  camera's zoom lens unless specified.
DCR-7900ZD+RA6272 lens may focus properly only at the maximum wideangle position of HDR-FX1/HVR-Z1 cameras.
Although you may detect a white dot in the HD-FXR180 lens sometimes when looking into from the front, but it's not out of normal and would not affect any of image quality.
A combination of DCR-7900ZD+RA6272 may not be able to mount on the other 72mm filter size cameras.
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.
The lens is neither made for dust-free nor moisture/water-proof.
All of Raynox conversion lenses are proudly made in Japan. At our wholly 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.
