Used on a Sony FV-1F -- It works great!
First, I am not using the adhesive ring because I am using this on the F model of the FV-1 (FV-1F.) I followed some YouTube examples and added a Variable ND filter that screws onto the camera. (I'm using that for video to keep my exposure settings where I want them to adhere to the 180 rule.) Next I added a step-up ring that fits between the ND filter and the Ulanzi Wide Angle lens. (I have not used the macro option on this filter but what a great added benefit.)The short version is that this lens helps resolve the camera problem of not having a wide enough view angle, ESPECIALLY when using the stabilization setting on the FV-1 version cameras because of the crop in 'feature' that occurs when stabilization is turned on. This does add more weight and bulk to these small form factor cameras.However, what we're really after is good video. I am willing to have a bit more weight and bulk. For a much less expensive camera I've been able to get a better image. Eventually I will get a different primary vlogging camera and use this for b-roll or as a top camera. For now I'm really happy with it and will add more down the road with more use. And really, this still isn't as heavy or bulky as a much higher $$ vlogging camera with a separate lens!2 last mentions. First, because I'm using the F version I do not know how this works with the adhesion ring. There are some extremely positive reviews on YouTube as well as a some less than positive mentions. Second, on this FV-1F it is easy to unscrew the lens configuration I'm using and have the camera as the super small, compact pocket-size vlogging camera it is.Over all I really like this set up and will add more pros or cons as I discover any along the way.All the best in your own set ups!

It works! Best cheapest alternative to an expensive macro lens
I bought this to save money and not having to buy a zve10 macro lens for $500. Well, it works! There’s a slight blur around the edges but I can hardly see it.

makes for a better view on the camera
I loved that it did not make my camera too heavy. It is a very high quality lense. It is worth the money spent on it.

It’s perfect. Lens adapter comes with it and it does stay on.
I noticed a review mentioning it doesn’t come with a step out mount for the wide angle lens, and another about it not staying on. Everything you need for this camera is all together. You actually attach everything together when using the wide angle. Also, when initially mounting anything sticky, it requires time for the product to permanently bond. So I recommend sticking the adapter first without the lens so that you can let the bond adhere (think command strips) then after some time you can proceed to mount the lens which should stay on fairly well. Just make sure to attach the adapter centered. I’ve held my camera by the handle or tripod knowing the weight of the lens and it still stays on. I’m not as careful as I should be, and mine has stayed on quite well. Plus the wide angle and macro work perfectly well.If it’s still confusing, it goes camera > lens adapter > macro lens > wide angle lens > lens cover. When you want macro, just unscrew the wide angle. Hope this helps. It’s a great find to help a great camera.

Falls Off Constantly: Poor Adhesive Makes This Lens Useless
This lens is a complete disappointment. The adhesive does not stick properly, causing the lens to fall off repeatedly. No matter how carefully it's applied, it won’t stay in place for more than three days. It's frustrating and feels like a total waste of time and money. I would not recommend this product to anyone.

Ok kit
I think this is a great lens other than the adhesive doesn't last. The lens is heavy so after awhile the adhesive stops sticking and lens falls off. So maybe better adhesive is need. What comes with it may not be strong enough.

Honest Review
The only thing I don't like about this lens is that it falls off, there is no secure way to attach the Lens to the camera. But the lens is very clear and helps with content creation. 7/10

The ULANZI WL-1 wide-angle and macro lenses are exceptional
The ULANZI WL-1 wide-angle and macro lenses are exceptional. I purchased the 52mm size. It works well and is universal because of the adapter that can adhere to any lenses face. I think we having the ability to take in more of your surrounding with the addition of a wide-angle lens such as the ULANZI makes it worth it at the price point.
