    I am not a professional photographer, and I am really just starting to shoot with more advanced cameras. So I can’t evaluate in depth how much better this is, compared to the kit that came with the camera. I bought it because I really like to take portrait photos, and this creates a great bouquet effect. My camera is the Z50, so I am sure I don’t use its full potential. But overall, it had given me what I expected from it. I just it was a bit more compact.
