Just bough the Raynox for my V1.

Just a little short clip messing around in my front yard. Yes, i know..you can see the shadow.

No vignetting at all...but man..is it a BEAST..makes the V1 extremely front heavy.

Ok, the Raynox 180.

I am considering the 185 fish eye, according to Raynox it gives you super wide angle, diagonal fish eye and circular fish eye, depending on how you turn its "zoom ring".

I will post some shots later in February once back from my trip in Asia, where I plan to buy a couple of Raynox lenses. Their European distributors are plain impotent.

looks cool, i wonder if they do same lens for HVX.
Just dont want to spend 1k on Century Optics fisheye lens...

Might just be the compression but it looks very soft around the edges of the frame.

I was impressed with my Raynox 6600Pro on my TRV900, and their website is excellent, showing you little films of what the lenses can do for you.
