I'm trying to buy a step down ring? I think that's what it's called
a ring that makes a 37mm lens fit onto a 52mm camera..
I found a step down ring on ebay and it says
"TO THE SIDE OF THE CAMERA: 52mm
TO THE SIDE OF THE Filter: 37mm"
is this what I'm looking for???

Lol just get a proper sized lens.

Step down bad.

I have to use two step-up rings to get my Raynox to fit my threads. Looks fine. I'd give you the specs, but I'm not at home right now.
19 January 2009, 18:33 UTC#12
everyone has a mx-3000 tho
19 January 2009, 18:37 UTC#13
I know I do.

if u wanna make it wider for more of a skating look, look up raynox mod and u can make it way wider.
19 January 2009, 18:56 UTC#15
Yeah I read some of the mod tutorials. They all seemed legit too, but I think it's pretty pointless unless you film lotssss of skateboarding.
And damn, the price on the Raynox has went up about $40.
19 January 2009, 23:27 UTC#16
I need to get a step down ring because I believe that baby death lenses only come in 37mm
the mx3000 shit or whatever it's called looks nice but it might not be good for skateboarding and shit

if u have a camera with a 52mm thread, its better to get a death lens anyway.
mod the raynox imo.
EDIT: the point is that 52-37 is a big step down, defeating some of the fish eye effect.

No, it's not at all actually.

Is that the one that rattles when your riding on your gnar stick?
20 January 2009, 05:08 UTC#21
The lens just doesn't have enough magnification, skating-wise. Lines and rail-bangers, specifically.
20 January 2009, 05:45 UTC#22
Do you have to own a fancy fuck camera to use a raynox mx-3000?
20 January 2009, 05:49 UTC#23
I might mod my Raynox, but I'm not sure yet. Adding filters in between the fish eye and my VX's lens increases the field of view a bit, but adds a decent about of vig.
20 January 2009, 05:49 UTC#24
Nah, you'd just need to use more drastic step-ups I think.
