Customer Reviews: Nikon Coolpix 8700 accessory lensesMarch 23, 2009 Carl M. Akers There are inherent problems with this product that severely limit it's use. First, the telephoto lens can only be used with the camera's lens in the near maximum telephoto position. The edges of the pics will be slightly blurred. Also, the tubes significantly reduce light necessitating the use of a strobe. However,there is a significant shadow produced with the use of a strobe with the either the wide angle or the telephoto lens. This problem cannot be corrected by using a separate strobe connected to the camera, such as an SB-24. I have found that these lenses do not significantly increase the versatility of the Coolpix 8700 camera.
