Ok I got a Tokina 0.45X AF High Def Digital Wide Angle Lens with Macro.

I put it on the front of my 28-90mm USM and it visually don't look a hellova lot wider.

What's the mathematics for this aka what it ='s for angle?:scratch

Also for my Sony 828 which is a 28-135mm.

I understand the mathematics when adding a Tcon but not for the front side of the lens.:dunno

It is fairly heavy so I realize I will hafta use manual focus on both cameras as to not kill the auto focus mech on either one.

I know the 1st comment "Why not just buy a wide angle lens"?
It was FREE so I thought I'd play with it.:D
