Customer reviews
Not-so-great telephoto lens 
This lens is really poor quality.
Makes your photos look like they were taken with a toy camera with a plastic lens. Lots of distortion.I would not buy it again, nor recommend.
Good little addition 
This is worth the money for the added length, but beware that when fully extended there is significant non-natural blurring around the edges of the photo. I used it on my Kodak Z650. For the price, I'm still glad I bought it, but not very ideal for professional looking photos.
Great Lens 
The lens attaches easily to the adapter on my Kodak Z650. I'm happy with the magnification power of the lens; however, it is necessary to zoom in with the regular camera lens to ensure proper focus and clarity of the subject. This camera and lens combination can produce great images when used with a tripod!
Good Telephoto Lens, but not the Best... 
First of all this is a Telephoto lens and is meant to take photos of far away objects. For closer shots, there's a problem in auto-focus, but far-away shots are zoomed by approx 50% and appear sharp and focussed. This lens is big and hence blocks the camera flash. But flash is used for closer photos and not for far-away photos. When we attach the lens to camera, there is a black circle in the viewable area. This disappears when we zoom a bit which is quite OK since the photos to be taken with lens are meant to be zoomed. The lens is quite heavy, but the whole assembly (camera + lens) looks very professional. This lens is good but I would recommend to go for higher zoom (3x or 5x).
Opteka 2.2x HD² Telephoto Lens for Kodak EasyShare Z650 Z740 
This was a waste of money, you can actually purchase a telephoto lens made my the same people that makes the lens for Kodak. I bought this lens, its too bulky, it makes your photos hazy and blurry. I would not recommend buying this.
