The Funleader 18mm f/8 'Cap Lens' is a Kickstarter project that promises a full frame lens with a wide angle of millimeter, but it has heavy vignetting and soft corners in images. The lens is extremely thin and lightweight, making it easy to carry around, but it lacks basic controls like aperture and focus. The image quality is subpar, with sharpness limited to the middle of the frame and poor corner performance. It also has limited functionality with a fixed focus distance and maximum aperture of f/8, making it unsuitable for close-up images or low light conditions.
