Sony Super Wide Angle Lens

I was looking for a deathlens type lens for my sony HC85 camera, I came across the sony own brand lens VCL-SW04 I read some reviews and it gave me the impression that is what I need. it retails at over £100 here in the UK, so I ended up searching all over the net and found a used one for $100 (£50) on ebay.com

it came this morning and I tested it out and to my surprize it wasnt what I was looking for.

so iv got a lens for sale if any of you guys want it HGF gets first grabs, if not its going back on ebay.

heres some quick screen shots I took outside just a moment ago, I would of took more but its frezzing.

the glass quality is alot better than my other lens, you can zoom fully without any blur or fear of it going out of focus. it will fit on any camera. sony or not. im asking for £50 for it, due to thats how much it cost me and I wont used it. postage would be £5 im geussing, either way its half price.

peace.

p.s. I will post anywhere in the world, postage may double, I can take check and paypal.

Looks pretty good to me, what exactly are you after?

a death lens which is basicly what this hemel skates website clip was filmed with

view it Here

its basicly a lens you can be inches away from the skateboarder which normaly you would only get half the board & a foot in shot but once the lens is on and at the same pace you can fit the whole person, board, background in. there called deathlens because you so close to the bmxers/skaters your at more chance to get hit by them....and die...well not die but the risk is higher but the shots looks alot nicer.

Whoa, thats a bargain. Too bad I dont have the cash. The fact you can fully zoom through it is awesome, none of my own lenses is able to do that.

I'll take it.

I know nothing about fish eyes, and them pics dont make sence too me (before and afters?) But it will fit too any cam u say? I would need summit else I assume to make it connect?

this is your worse joke yet....oh you anit kidding?

before = the cameras normal view

after = the cameras view with the lens on.

it will connect to any cam, all you need is a step up ring if it isnt a 37mm thread, and they are pennys to buy on ebay.

looks like FMS is buying it...someone out bid him lol

Nah I knew wht they were, but it looked like the first one was of somethign completly different, I see it now, sowwy.

its nextdoors blown down fence, what did you think it was nugga?

lol, I thought the first 'beofre' one was just in a completly differnt place to the 'after' shot.
