What is the focal length?

Best estimation is that the magnifying glass focuses at between 1 and 1 1/2 inches from the object being magnified.

The lense's widest focal length is 12mm. This is a MFT lens, so there is a cropping factor to take into consideration. On most mft cameras. 12mm is equivalent to a 24mm FOV, so it doesn't look fisheye. You'll need something like a 7mm to achieve that affect. With that said, this is an INCREDIBLE lens. Excellent for both cinematography and photography.

Fixed focus, does not zoom, approx. 2.5' diameter spot at 20'. never timed it's battery life because I've never used it more than about 30 minutes

About 6.5 inches long/width. 4.5 inches high. About 4 inches deep (lens when closed). Lens opens up to about 1 inch. Hope that helps.

IS will not matter at this focal distance. Only start worrying about IS (or VR as Nikon refers to the technology) past about 70mm

There is a Macro Mode option. How close you can get to your subject depends on the zoom setting. It ranges from 0.4 inches to 2.0 inches from the lens, according to the user manual.

nobody mention the focal distance? I think that's the most important difference....

Thank you for your response. I seem to do OK with close up but longer focal lengths give me a hard time. I may send it in just for them to check it out. I like the camera but I havent ever been so stymied before.

Yes, it is. The focal length and aperture value cannot be mathematically separated, and must both be multiplied by 1.53.

It appears the focal distance is about 10-12 feet; you will be unable to see any clear image nearer than that distance.

I returned this lens and the camera that used it. I suppose it's more or less the equivalent of a 35mm in full frame, a bit of a wide angle.

About six inches. Probably a little less. One of the huge benefits of this wonderful little lens!

Somewhere around the 4 mark. It's such a great lens. I don't think you'll regret purchasing it, truly.

The 35mm equivalent focal length is about 45mm. This is an excellent focal length for room-distance pictures of people or general landscape photography.

It appears to be the 200 mm. I have not measured exactly per say but it does zoom out that much and it works really well. I keep it on my camera unless I am doing some macro work.

This is for a Sony camera with APS-C size senor ... ie NEX Series and others. The crop factor is 1.5. Therefore, while it is 35mm in focal length, the view through the lens is equivalent to 52.5mm (35 x 1.5 = 52.5) lens of a full frame DSLR.

This lens can focus down to about 3/4" from the end of the lens, a distance that makes the distance between the subject and the sensor inside the camera about 4 inches. In practical use, one must get very close to their subject to get the maximum magnification, which for some might make this lens impractical. I use this lens not only for macro use, but as the standard lens which stays on my camera most of the time, it does very well in all situations and it is very sharp.
