Works, but wears quickly
The adaptor itself seems to work fine. I've used it with lenses like the Helios 44M 58mm and Helios 28mm wide-angle with much success. However after shooting with it for several days, I've noticed maybe a dozen fine metal particles covering my A7ii's sensor. I can't be certain whether the particles came from a lens or the adaptor itself, but it might be a good idea to leave one of these adaptors on each M42 lens you have, or purchase a more expensive one that won't wear.

Great Camera
Great camera overall, I am using 5 of these now in system running Blue Iris as the NVR, I find the built in audio to be especially nice for area's like my front door and front yard where it can be useful to record audio, it's amazing how much context can be gained from listening in sometimes. The low light capability is truly impressive, my drive way camera never even go's into night vision mode, the street lights are enough to see perfectly, the older Dahua camera's these replaced could not do this and while it was okay it is definitely much preferable to maintain color mode.I can’t speak for the camera’s special stand alone features since I am using it in Blue Iris, but I can say that is plays perfectly with Blue Iris and has become my preferred camera / brand ( my first experience with this brand was the Amcrest ProHD 1080P POE, also a perfect camera that has been working for years) If I were building my system from scratch today I wouldn’t hesitate to use these or any other Amcrest POE camera for the entire system, for now I’ll have to wait on my older camera’s to die before i have an excuse to upgrade them.*note that the video and file are with a dirty lens from rain/weather/construction and are exported from Blue iris, the camera focuses well past grime/smudges that might be on the lens.

Superb webcam!
I was initially hesitant to order this product only because I wondered if it could really be any different from my PC’s built in webcam. I was wrong! For the price, this gem of a webcam delivers excellent picture quality and auto focus. It is compact and quite versatile in the sense it can be mounted on a monitor, laptop screen, tripod or just placed on a flat surface. The camera lens sits on a base and I can adjust the angle of the lens as required. It does have an inbuilt mic but I prefer to use my headset mic which eliminates ambient noise. Top quality product!

Great Product! Great Packaging! Great Customer Ser
I LOVE this Xenvo iPhone camera lens kit! I sell vintage costume jewelry on Etsy and needed a way to take clear pictures of the teeny-tiny maker's marks on the jewelry. The Xenvo macro lens works perfectly! Further, I was very impressed with the quality of the item as well as the packaging. When you receive this, it is well packaged/protected and it comes with a USB key that you can plug into your computer to quickly and easily register the product and watch helpful how-to videos. It shipped very quickly and I was able to put it to use quickly. Thank you!!

Great Valiue, You Need Anti-Fog Spray Though
Batteries performed well. Great photos and video, We used it underwater a lot on a Cayman vacation. It does fog up due to some condensation getting in some how. One of my attached pictures (the parasailing one) shows what the pictures looked like with a fogged up lens. We could not use it on the snorkeling portion of our trip because there was too much condensation in the sealed lens area. That was disappointing but all other elements of the camera were above expectations. Worked will with its connection accessories and some GoPro accessories that we borrowed from friends.

Quality camera
I just came back from vacation & had the opportunity to use it on 2 occasions. Both times I pretty much used the default camera settings.The first time use was on a jet boat with camera mounted to my head. The motion stabilization worked well as the boat ride was jarring. The video was flawless.Second time use was scuba diving, max depths of 45'. I mounted it to the floating hand hold. I dived 3 times, 2 with a red lens filter attached and 1 without lens filter but with camera set to dive mode. Slight difference in blues & greens but can't really say which was better. The video was excellent. I noticed a little moisture in the camera's waterproof container after 3rd dive.The only con I can think off concerns the time stamp. Time stamp reverts to 01-01-2000 upon battery removal, meaning every time battery comes out you have to reset the time. Good luck with that.All in all, I would definitely recommend purchase.

love the zoom, really highlights key details
clicked a link on a photo blog, bought this after thinking about it for a week or two, love it! Different photo apps use different camera lenses on my phone (learned something new), which has three photo lenses, but the crosshairs in the Xenvo lens let you center the macro/zoom lens until you find the right one (the wrong ones will give you black space and error messages). Comes with a nice storage case and an LED light I wasn't expecting (I didn't read the description details before I bought it).

Excellent well made lens cap keepers
Excellent well made lens cap keepers. The quality is evident by the way the elastic is attached to the keeper line and the ease with which the elastic can be attached to the lens body. Hard to praise the quality of the product more.

I am very pleased with this lens
I have been using this lens to pull in images I had been wanting to get. From remote farm houses in scenic valleys, to herds of elk. I am very pleased with this lens.
