Ulanzi WL-1 18mm
The German Schott low-dispersion glass and 30-layer nano-coating deliver HD images free of vignetting and glare, expanding the Sony ZV1’s built-in lens to an 18mm wide-angle. Its 10X macro conversion lens, which requires removing the wide-angle attachment, provides a sharp minimum focus distance for extreme close-up detail in a compact, aluminum alloy frame. This 2-in-1 adapter is best for ZV1 vloggers and hobbyists who need a quick-swap solution for both expansive scenes and intricate macro shots without carrying multiple heavy lenses.
