I got this to monitor my 3D printer and it works very well with a piZero 2W - the focussing is a bit fiddly and could benefit from a larger knurled lens mount. 160 degrees turns out to be ludicrously wide angled - meaning the camera needs to be very close to the print bed - stood 2 inches from the build plate it still only fills half the frame - good camera and lens but possibly not ideal for a 3D printing monitor

amazing to be able to easily adjust the focus and having a wide angle at the same time

Works well but the cable is very short and I have not been able to find any way to extend if

Works as described and expected! Probably should have gone with the non-IR filtered lens, as this variable focus mount/lens is not compatible with much out there.

Very good but not for everything. I prefer to use for close up images eg inside a bird box, or filming close up work. Gets loads in the frame. I struggled to get it to focus on distances eg as a camera filming a room. For that I'd suggest the zero cam 120 degree fixed focus.
