HG10? Buy it, put it on, leave it on!
Canon quality. Great lens. If you have an HG10 or HV20 camcorder, I would highly recommend buying this for your camera, putting it on and leaving it on.
Here's a video you can watch to see what it does:

As some reviewers have pointed out, yes, it makes the camera heavier, but it my mind, that's a good thing. Plus, I wouldn't recommend shooting video without a tripod anyway (unless you want to make your viewers sea sick!)
If you buy a $1,000 camera, it only makes sense to add a wide-angle lens.
Highly recommended!

Great wide angle converter
Good wide angle converter with the Canon quality built in. It makes the camera somewhat front heavy because it weighs about the same as the entire camera.

It is what it is...
This is a nice chunk of glass... Slight barrel distortion, slight vignetting and a little soft, but all in all a great performer.
Let's be honest, it's a sub 200 dollar lens, so don't expect miracles. But IMHO, it's worth every penny. Plus, it looks cool on the HV20 (see my pics above).
Heavy? Yes, but so what.

great glass....
I bought this converter knowing it would be heavy, understanding that a well made lens with good glass will always be heavy, so don't be scared by the reviews reading "the lens weighs more than the camera itself," which is true, but what would you expect to weight more,layers of glass or a cmos chip and minimotherboard? In the film industry, the nicer lenses can be so heavy it takes two people to lift them(zoom/telephoto), let's you know you are handling something expensive and precious. I had a hard time finding before and after shots, so here is a simple comparison: from 7 feet away, the camera could see to a car doors edges to the car frame, and with converter you see all the tires. You will never take it off once used.

Canon XL H1S And XL H1A Digital Video CamcordersCanon, a leader in digital technology, has succeeded in its high definition HD XL series and now introduces XL H1S and XL H1A high definition digital video models with new advanced features for professional cameramen.
The new XL H1S and XL H1A feature Canon 20x HD Video Lens with zoom, focus and iris for manual adjustments. The lens system offers aspherics for reducing flare, fluorite elements to decrease chromatic aberration, and Super Range Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) to correct camera shake. In addition, cameras use HDV tapes – the most affordable video digital media for shooting prolonged occasions, such as wedding or film making.
Both XL H1S and XL H1A produce outgoing HD image quality with:
- Canon XL interchangeable lens system
- 1/3 inch 1.67 Megapixel 3CCD Image Sensors
- DIGIC DVII HD Image Processor
- 6-pin IEEE 1394 terminal to external hardware
- XL H1S model incorporates HD-SDI (SMPTE 299M/272M) output with raw and uncompressed 1.485 Gbps signal to meet live production needs, as well as SMPTE Time Code ins/outs and Genlock output.
Video can be captured in various frame rates:
- 60i aimed at mainstream production
- 30F for Web delivery or qualitative grabs
- 24F to imitate motion-picture film
There is an optional upgrade to get 50i and 25F frame rates. All frame rates are between HD 1080-line 16:9 aspect ratio and SD 480-line 4:3 aspect ratio.
A total of 23 custom presets available for color adjustments with step-by-stem tuning to achieve professional subtleties.
 The new XL H1S and XL H1A HD camcorders are carefully designed for professional producers, cinematographers, and know how to benefit the best quality of Canon HD videocams. No wonder that Canon’s consumer camcorders gained number one position until sales above 200$ in January and February. Also Canon's new XL H1S and XL H1A digital video camcorders will be exposed at 2008 NAB Show.
The new Canon XL H1S HD is planned to be available in June for an estimated retail price of 8,999$, and the Canon XL H1A will have an estimated retail price of 5,999$ and will be available in July.
