does anyone know of a place i can buy/order some kind of fisheye lens that will work with my canon elura 100 camcorder,or do they even make one for that model?i purchased a wide angle lens from ebay a few months ago,but it didnt make much of a difference at all.i use the camera for filming bmx/skateboarding stuff,and i just want something that can give me alittle more room on the screen so i can follow closer to the person riding or skating.any help is appreciated.

Here is canon's own wide angle converter, but you could use any other converters as well, as long as your camera's lens diameter is the same as the adapter's diameter. They would probably also be cheaper (of course eBay is always a good place). As for making a difference in the picture, look at the converter rating. A .7x will provide about 35% more picture space while a .5X will double your angle of view. Anything beyond that and it'll be a fisheye lens. So if you can buy a .5x adapter, that might help increase your AOV a little more. Hope this helps!

Hi! Your lens that you have now has a 58mm thread (the screw-in bit where the lens cap goes) so you need to buy a wide angle fisheye lens adapter that is also 58mm so it will fit ontop of your existing lens. I suggest you look on Ebay and don't buy anything over £15/$25 because if it's anything over they are scamming you. Good Luck
