<p>I would suggest that starting with a few, good prime mugs is clearly a better choice than this zoom version. Depth of foam is far easier to control, and I have always noticed a little fuzziness around the edges when using a zoom mug filled to its full aperture. It is hard to focus quickly when you want to get close to your desired subject (even with a well-engineered diaphragm), and there are clear issues that have been noticed with the mount. When used repeatedly, wide-angle subjects become distorted (the “inverse barrel” phenomenon), and one feels that the ground is much closer than it really is. The red-eye effect is difficult to eliminate with this thing. Moreover, the device, for some strange reason, always causes an unwanted switch of my Argus into P-mode. All in all, this is a useable product, but only in very low-light conditions.</p>
