A Necessary tool
I use this lens with Canon's HF 200. It's their introductory HD consumer video camera. Wow, what a difference this lens makes. As other reviewers have stated this lens doesn't reduce the quality of your footage, if anything it enhances it. This lens is a must have tool for getting close shots while still mainting a wide field of view of your subject and the background. This lens allows you to get up close and personal with your subject without loosing any depth perspective, visual clairty or wide field of view.
I highly recommend this product. Check out canon's website to see which cameras this lens is compatable with. If this lens is not compatable with your camera then search for your camera on canon's site and then click the "accesories" tab and you should find a list of compatable lens and accessories.

Canon WD-H37 II Wide Conversion Lens for 37mm Filter Diameter Optimized for HD Camcorders
Lens is perfect. Comes in Canon protective drawstring bag, and each side of the lens has its own protective cover. Putting the lens on my Canon VIXIA HF-20 takes about 5 seconds.

I shoot in a very confined space and this lens allows me to capture the entire visual field while being in the same room. Worth every penny.

Great for the kid
Very happy with the Canon HF-100 and the wide angle is great for shooting the kid in close quarters. Good solid construction and installs easily. Comes with covers and carry case, but I've left it on until I need to shoot outside. You can't use the flash or movie light with it on and they recommend you disable autofocus assist because the lens blocks it, hasn't been a problem though. Very useful and a great accessory.

I use it continously
Since I bought Wide Conversion Lens I use camera only with lens mounted on. Recordings wide angles give quality movies.

A must have for new parents...
I purchased this lens converter after months of trouble try to video my newborn baby boy. Without it, I have to be several feet away from my son which made it difficult to grab him if he started to fall. The closer interaction also makes for a more personal perspective.

The lens is a very high quality glass but you can't buy a filter to protect it. It is a little heavy when compared with the weight the camcorder.

I do wish the lens could be purchased in black.
