Sorry If I've posted this in the wrong place
I bought this teleconverter for a video camera for $4NZ and a ring I glued onto it for $5. Haven't given it a real good go yet, will have to wait and see.
Nasty fullfrontal onboard flash at 1600iso

Don't think this is the right place, but that's quite interesting...I have never seen that done before..:D How did you possibly line it up??

Just kidding. What are you trying to achieve?

Oh, nm. I didn't see the actual image. At first I thought it was a strange way of doing macro.

The poor mans fish eye. I love it! I should try this. I don't have the money to put down on any new lens, and I want one pretty badly.

Looks like a fun combination of lenses. Like the second picture.

You can buy them already glued together, but its not nearly as fun, or cheap.
You can macro with it too

Soft corners draw you to where the action should be with a fisheye, the center.
Nice job man.
