Cavision Wide Angle? Anyone used one?

I started a thread on advice for a wide angle adaptor and most people recommended the Century Optics 0.6. Someone recommended the 0.6 Cavision lens (the PWA06X72) and it's $150 cheaper. I don't want to sacrafice good image, but I'm on a no-strings budget (one-step down from a shoe-string budget).

I need some honest feedback on the Cavision lens.

Someone?

I have the cavision 0.6x (non zoom through) and it has some distortion, but even the default DVX wide lens has some distortion, I liked the quality, but I don't have a century to compare.

How often do you use it? I need one for some in-car shots for a project, but I don't know how much use I'll get after the shoot.

The DVX lens is pretty wide, many times you don't need a wider lenses, but when you are in small rooms, cars, etc, the 0.6x should be helpful.
I don't use it so much, but for some shots the 0.6x is a nice effect (but you get some distortions)

I'll try to post 2 pics with and without the cavision 0.6x
