So, I was surfing ebay - found the AnyDacia SAD-N728, boasting it just screws on the end of the existing lens and x7 the length. even the video on youtube makes it out to be super clear and easy to use! pft!
instead of just moaning about this I have conducted tests all with manual settings (will not work with auto properly)
SO! 1, the SAD-728 kit.
2, My J1 with the SAD-728 - looks like half a binocular
3, view from window over a field at 10mm on normal 10mm-30mm Nikkor 1 lens.
4, 30mm with SAD-728 over field
5, 110mm with SAD-728 over field
6, 10mm at trampoline (normal lens)
7, 30mm with SAD-728 at tramoline
8, 110mm with SAD-728 at trampoline
This was done with a tripod and shutter remote control! lenses used Nikkor 1 10-30mm lens & Nikkor 1 30-110mm lens.
It was seriously difficult to even achieve these results! I had to take about 50 photos in total, these are the BEST results!
to top it off I parted with £78 on ebay, then £27 customs charges when it got stuck at UK customs for not having an invoice attached.
This is money down the drain, I cannot sell this piece of rubbish on to some poor unknowing person..
the other lens in the kit is a macro lens - this is okay, very cheap and plasticy but works!
Please don't fall for it! unless you're an idiot and believe everything you read on ebay..
thanks, Scott.
