Response to Century Optics, .6x Wide Angle Lens for CANON XL1

Eric, like Ben, I also have the Century w/lens shade and am very satisfied with. There are several advantages with this accessory:(1)compact size and good quality;(2)the Canon 3x does not have an image stabilizer, which is not absolutely necessary because of the short focal length involved, but I have found the image stabilization on the 3x to be useful using the Century while moving;(3)cost. The only drawback is that you are unable to zoom-through totally, and barrel distortion is more than the Canon 3x lens. Overall, you will most likely be very happy with it.
