Ive been browsing for a cheap, good lense.
I came across this as its the only one that matches my camera lens size

first off. whats your lens size? now.... you can get any lens to fit you camera all you need is a step-up or step- down ring. about $7-9bucks. a cheap fisheye is probably what you want... you have picked out a clip on telephoto- (zoom lens) which is pointless unless your spying on somebody. seems like everybodys goin with the kenko these days $40 +ship kenko fisheye (http://www.adorama.com/KN043X37.html?searchinfo=kenko%20fisheye&item_no=2). or if they can afford it a baby death $300. buy from adorama or bhphotovideo.com their legit, as for adorama its out of stock so for right now your screwed.

Yeah well I have mild dyslexia.
Its 46 mm. I was trying to link to a fisheye, I had obviosuly posted the wrong link.... oh well, anyway, I don't live in amaerica and so its harder to find lenses for a video camera.

That's the one I was supposed to link to. It's not the right lens size though. I'm gonna check out my local electric shop see what they got.

wow you need a step down ring.... and don't EVER get a snap on lens ever.
like its been said b4 just try to learn how to film long lens first..(no lens) then when you get good enough at that get a kenko sgw-043,, or a raynox hd 5051pro.. both very good fisheyes. but for now long lens

well you still managed to spell lens, lense. and not having a fisheye donest make your videos look "sucky" ..... not taking time and putting in effort makes your videos look "sucky". btw lots of places ship worldwide but is gonna be more expensive.

kenko .43.. best cheap fisheye, besides a baby death.
If you ask any filmer, they would say a good long lens shot beats a fisheye shot anyday.
