http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?sk...d=1069300363160I have a lens almost exactly like that, but it's a little different.
My problem is it won't fit my new camera. It never came with adapter rings and when my friend tried putting it on with his, it wouldn't fit.
Anyone know what to do or at least what size my camera lens is? I've looked but can't find it anywhere.

did you remove the initial ring around lense?
30 July 2005, 03:43 UTC#3
There wasn't one...just the lens itself.

you have the same camera I have except mines the 40 not the 21...I was looking for lens for my cam too but couldnt find one..are you sure that the lens you have will work with that camera?

with an adaptor it should. If not I'll buy a clip on if it'll fit.

That's pretty good but I would zoom past the black circles.

you need a ring adapter
the thing about sony is that they want you to purchase their exclusive products...so they make their dimensions to fit their lenses
take your cam to a cam shop and find out the size ring you need
it took me for fucking ever to find a ring for my sony

If your camera is the same as my 'dcrhc40e', your lens has a 25mm thread, it's a bit of a bitch to get adapters for that size. Sony is progressively making their lenses smaller so you have to buy sony lenses... Cunts.

30 July 2005, 09:39 UTC#15
get a macro lens to get it fit..
u probably got a lens with the wrong range for your cam.
30 July 2005, 19:06 UTC#16
Well, the only ones I can find that fit it are normal wide angle lenses. Basically what I'm wondering is, does anyone have a site where I can get an adaptor so it'll fit?
