Looks like the kind that screws on the front of a regular lens, by way of the filter threads on the front. It's a cheap way to get a wide angle, macro, etc... photos. Unfortunately more often extremely cheap in quality, as far as how the photos will look. If there's a brand name on it, you can google it and it should tell you what they are.

Hello, I am not sure of this exact type but usually you would use macro part only for close up shots (it will allow you to focus closer). Using macro part with distant subjects usually won't work. Wide angle you use if you want to fit more in the picture (great for landscapes or if you can not move far enough from your subject). You can use them together if you want to get a wider view of a very close subject. There's nothing wrong with your question. Bojan

From the images you supplied I'm going to guess in the same direction as Gregory. They look like "screw on" close up supplementary lenses. Depending on optic quality, they can be an inexpensive alternative to a high quality macro lens and are capable of producing nice results up to 1/2 life size. Higher quality 2 element supp. lenses are out there to use with telephoto focal lengths.
