I have a Sony videocam with a 52mm thread - will the telephoto enable good close-up video from further away

I have used it with my camera lens and did not see much difference between the regular lens and the close-up attachment

You have to be really close to what you're taking a picture of. Like 1cm away if not less.

Yes, that's the cam i bought it for and it's worth every penny. Just know that your buying a prime lens, and you'll have a 1.5 crop factor with the APS C sensor. So the reality is really more of 50mm lens.

The sensor will let you to shoot at ISO 6400 or higher which will enable you too get shots in pretty dark environments. This will produce an image with quite a bit of noise in the dark areas so you will need to use a post processing program to remove the noise. I use Lightroom 5 and it works very well.The 18-55mm kit lens is not a very long telephoto so you will not be able to zoom in from very far away, but the high megapixel sensor allows you to crop-in to use the center of the image.

No the image would be too small no mater how you enlarged it. I tried shooting over my shoulder to capture my TV about 20 feet away. and the picture was poor and the Tv was small.

Picture quality is pretty good, however I think my camera may have been shipped not quite square in the mount. I get a view that is aimed off to the side by a slight amount. This also could be a result of my license plate not sitting square on my bumper. I have no experience with the VTL100, but I can tell you that the 425 has a short pigtail that is connected to the cable which will run to your head unit/monitor. At that end, there is another connection where you will tap in power and the wired remote to switch views.

You can set the camera to macrozoom and get as close as you need to get-just play with the distance because it automatically centers the photo.

Why YES, you certainly can. You use the MACRO mode (just push the round button at the 3 o'clock position to toggle between normal, horizon, and macro) and you can get as close as 1.5 inches. I use it for snapping the inside of pocket watches to show the movement in crisp detail, and the shots come out amazing. This is a great camera. I may buy a second as a backup for when I inevitably break this by dropping it or something else very stupid. (Ex: I put my last Canon Powershot, which I loved, through the wash by leaving it in my pants pocket! It still worked, but was very sluggish to open so I got this one and am VERY happy.)

It helps with wildlife photography when trying for an extra close up. Think of a 50mm zoom lens and how much it can zoom.

Yes, should do. Mind you, I do believe the small sensor and small opening will mean you have quite limited movement of the D5200 relative to the front standard. Only matters if you're going to stitch or do a lot of tilting/shifting. I've used it with the D800E and it's great, although it's a hassle.

To be honest, I have never tried a video, but I haven't been totally satisfied with the performance of the lens. Zooming in and out of taking photos, it seems to go through more adjustments than my Sony lens. It does not seem to zoom that far for me.

It does a good job with video, as it's HD, at 720p. However, it doesn't seem to adjust focus well, if you change the telephoto setting while filming. It's better to stop recording, adjust your teldphoto lens to where you want it, then re-focus before recording again. I have not uploaded to YouTube yet, so I can't comment on that, but it should work OK.

The Macro Glass accessory is for close up video photography and does not work in a telephoto capacity. The Hero 3+ has a wide field of view out of the box, so an object far away would appear even farther on the video. Hope this helps.

You are going to get a massive amount of vignette with a 52mm to 3m step down. This adapter is for a specific camera, the Panasonpmic Lumix DMC-LX7 and it will pretty much vignette any adapter unless its within about 3mm of difference e.g. Common 55mm teleconverters from Olympus won't vignette but a 58mm canon adapter will. Your idea is not a good one.

Yes, but you need to also buy the "Sony Alpha LAEA1 Mount Adaptor". I have both and it works flawless. The telephoto lens is truly amazing.

Yes, but you will have to zoom at 15mm or 16mm, Why not take the full frame version, 16-28

Please ignore my previous answer. A telephoto would shorter, but this lens would be even wider which should be fantastic.
