no way in hell this kid pulled his lens off, i just heated mine up for 15 minutes and ended up actually cutting myself i was trying to hard. also it's obvious it isn't the same lens, there is a cut between him taking his lens apart and him putting the so called modified lens in front of his camera.
bought this lens.. piece of shit if you ask me might as well buy an opteka baby death.. serously dont waist your money and this mod works only on specific cameras so yea lame lensss
dude i did the same thing. blowdryit for 10min. then squeeze the ring tight and screw it off. dont fe afraid. if you hear something crack, its the glue they put on so you cant unscrew the ring off. just go for broke.
why u bought 0.3x lens if u fuck it up as soon as u buy it? that lense looks like shit now and i think the coating of the lens is gone! can you even zoom with that thing?
whe you buy the lens it doesn't even look like a 7.0x, the lens ten times better when you push that shitty lens out of it, its not more then a zoom lens, and yes you can zoom in, not to far but you can
Dude I know what your saying, I have this lens and I love it. I bought it because I didn't want the extreme shitty looking fisheye effect. I love the lens. This chump would have been better off buying a cheap snap-on lens on ebay.
it's semi fisheye. its written to the lens... and in my opinion it's quite good one comparing to babydeath lens this has better image quality and this supports zooming and babydeath doesn't... but im not saying that babydeath sucks it's very good lens. and it has wider image. it was my second choice but i got raynox 'cause it was cheaper and it supports zooming and it had better imagequality... it really depends what you want from your lens...
Century's glass is way better than Raynox's glass. The whole point of a fisheye is to be able to capture someones whole body while working in close areas, so i don't really see a need to zoom. Your better off getting a wide angle in that situation. I currently have the raynox and i think it is a complete waiste of money, it just sets you back 100 bucks from the raynox. I have a job so 100 bucks isn't much to me, but i guess if you really can't afford one this isn't the worst option.
thank's for the video...i have two questions for you... this process is the same for the raynox hd 3031?... after you make this...the lens lose the quality more than before? excuse my english but i'm italian...please response... i need help!!!
hey man, yes its the same proces like the 3031! NO definitly not, the quality is still perfect en doesn't lose his capicity! thank's for your comment,
I also wonder how long you should blow dry the back lens...And also, is there any way to get the vignetting to disappear totally after the mod? By zooming in a little while filming?
Dont' be a pussy, just do it. I did it the other night, and it is a vast improvement, i did notice that one side has more vig than the other. Anyways it is worth it and i will have a video of the comparison between the normal lens and the mod on my vimeo acount once i get my firewire cord, ill leave a link when it is finished
does the heat affect the lens at all? cuz in the instructions it says to keep away from extensive heat, cuz i dont wanna seriosly fuck up my lens. also do u find that u get more distortion after you mod it?
I gues you had to push it in, but whith that lans in it its look like a wide angle and whithout the lens its a super semi fisheye. ans it works perfect.
its pretty amazing, if you buy a UV filter ring the quality is better then without. but if you dont't have one the quality is stil better than normal!
I guess you could do that to any wide lens.
I'm trying to mod my mino HD 2gen but don't know what lens to get , I might get the sunpak what do you suggest thanks
