Product description
This ultra wide-angle lens from NEEWER expands the field of view to capture sweeping landscapes, interiors and action shots with greater perspective and depth. It is designed as an add-on for GoPro-style action cameras and aims to give creators a dramatic 170° coverage while keeping footage compatible with stabilisation features on modern Hero models.
Key Points
The LS-37 lens offers a 170° ultra wide-angle view that helps include more of the scene in a single frame, useful for architecture, travel and sports photography. The optical element is multi-coated to reduce reflections and preserve contrast when shooting in bright conditions. The lens houses HD optical glass in an aluminium CNC-machined frame, which balances lightweight handling with durability. Mounting is tool-free, simply twisting the lens on and off for quick swaps during outdoor shoots. Note that the accessory is a lens unit only; it is not designed for full underwater use with the entire action camera.
Technical Specifications
- Name: NEEWER LS-37 170° Ultra Wide Angle Lens
- Angle of view: 170°
- Optical material: HD optical glass with anti-reflective multi-coating
- Frame material: Aluminium, CNC-machined
- Compatibility: GoPro Hero 13, Hero 12, Hero 11, Hero 10, Hero 9 (according to the manufacturer)
- Mount type: Tool-free twist-fit
Usage Recommendations
Attach the lens when you want an expansive composition, for example when photographing wide landscapes, large interiors or group shots where framing everything matters. The extra breadth increases perceived distance between foreground and background, which can be used creatively to emphasise scale. Because the lens alters the scene geometry, check framing first to avoid unwanted distortion near frame edges. Consider removing the lens for close-up portraits or when the reduced effective focal length is not desirable.
Advantages
This accessory brings greater visual drama to action camera footage with a simple installation process and a robust aluminium body. The multi-coated HD glass aims to limit flare and ghosting under challenging lighting, and the design is intended to remain compatible with in-camera stabilisation systems such as HyperSmooth according to the manufacturer. As a limitation, the lens and any included filters are not a substitute for a waterproof housing, so the complete camera system should not be submerged with this screw-on accessory attached.
