  • 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

  • ehy man, i have a terrible problem. see my vid... when i put the mod fish on my camera, the ''bubble'' isnt stopped.

    can u help me???

  • the first part was so damn hard!

  • can i return it back?...I tried but it was hard to put it there so I was afraid that it break

  • sick i just did it in like 2 minutes easier then you said :P

    haha its sick tho !:)

  • 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.

  • Haha, this lens is a piece of crap to me now, i have a TRV900 / MKII setup, and in some days i'm going to have a fucking rare Sony VX700

  • your heater wasnt hot enough, i just did this without any problems and the lense is like a babydeath now

  • would it work for a panasonic 3ccd minidv?

  • Stupid video. You are destroying your lens, this is not a mod this is just stupid

  • thanks cause of this retardet tutorial my fish eye 150 dollar fucked up

    dont do it

  • haha you are a jerk

  • what does it mean to mod

    a lens??????????

  • 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

  • roflmao this lens is a hundred times better than any opteka or century baby death lens.

  • @skateforcreature i just got the 72mm version, it's worthless, complete and total waste of money

  • why did they put that back lens in there anyway? that thing sucks! it does nothing.

  • you cant spell to hot, but dammit if you know your way around the camera. i'll deffinately be doing this to my raynox :D

    thankyou

  • Can You Post A Before Mod And After mod.?

  • If your going to film skating, definetly mod this, I just modded mine, it's so sick.

    Almost as good as a baby death.

  • what does mod mean?

  • Mod is short for modification, or change.

  • Dude, I can't get my top ring off. I blow dryed it for like 10 minutes, etc. That shit isn't coming off, can you help me. or anybody!?

  • me neither ;d

  • you got to do it for awhile..it takes time lol

  • haha i´m not the only one... It´s my second try, i blowed it for 15 minutes, and this shit isn´t coming... It´s looks always easy on youtube.

  • thts wut she said haha

  • 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.

  • Can you also "un mod" it? Use the fisheye mod one day, and the next day just put the parts back together and use it as a wideangle lense? :D

  • why would you want too ?

  • i have thats same one and

    does the ring stay on after

    comment back plz

  • ok, thanks, i know this band, but i didn't know this song :)

  • i prefere buy a new fisheye, 30$ what's this song ?

  • Comment removed

  • that's bothering me too, it sounds like ambulance ltd but i doubt it is

  • THANK YOU IT TURNED OUT LOOKING BEAUTIFUL

    and you were not kidding about screwing it off, it was hard as shit lol

    =]

  • aaa great dude, yeah it's definetly hard to screw that thing off but the result is awesome, enjoy your fisheye laterrrrr

    Matt

  • what's the song ??

  • Are you not suppose to turn the lens around?

  • can this work with a non-HD camcorder?

  • sure

  • als we die nederlanders ook niet hadden haha:P

  • 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

  • yes of course it doesn't look like a 7.0x lens because it´s 0.3x... and if i would want lens like that i would buy it not destroy my old 0,3 one!

  • 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.

  • so true! 'cause it's a wide lens not a fish eye!

  • It is a fisheye, a very bad one at that. It isn't very wide even if you do mod it. Your better getting a baby death.

  • 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.

  • obviously...

  • whats the name of this song

  • im having a buttload of trouble getting tht front ring off after blowing it

    any suggestions?

  • can you just film around your house with it please, so we can see how it came out

  • it's wider, but it looks like shit.

  • 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,

    peace

  • I make your adjustment this evening...and it works perfectly!!!!you are a genius....thanks again..

  • Thnx man

  • 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?

  • eehm, I guess you should blow for a copple of minutes. And yes, you can zoom in! not far but yes you can zoom in.

    later

  • hay man, just wondering if the mod makes the vignetting go all wobbly?

    i hv a gs 230, 37mm thread, so yeh just wondering

    wb mann thanks for the vidd

  • you have to turn off ur ois or dis.. that is what makes your fisheye shake. go to your settings and find it

  • are you kidding? hes holding the lens up to the camera, thats why its shaking.

  • my vig is off, did this happen to you, or did i just screw it on wrong

  • yeah the mod is great but i dont have any vid either.. i wanna know now!! lol

  • wow just as easy as modding the mx3000

  • 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?

  • Oh you're right, it looks amazing, but we don't destroy it when we try to mod it. It looks hard to make it bette like you did it with yours.

    Maybe you can take us the fear.

    Thx LaSbtFamilia

  • Oh you're right, it looks amazing, but we don't want to destroy it when we try to mod it. It looks hard to make it bette like you did it with yours.

    Maybe you can take us the fear.

  • how long do you blow dry the back lens

  • thanks. I found it out:P

  • you don't need to answer those questions below but is it a special way i should put the lens back?

  • I'm not really sure but I think you can click it in or something

  • or is it just to put it push it in?

  • 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.

  • do I have to glue it if I will put the lens back?

  • helo. Is it posible to make it normale after doing this?

  • yes you can put the lens back on it

  • sorry if i missed this anywhere, but how long on average would we use the blow dryer for

  • nvm lol just re watched it

  • but how does removing the lens effect the quality on the shot?

  • 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!

  • beest :D

  • dude, this video is so nice, thanks a lot for making it

  • no problem dude

  • hey dude good job on the vid

    and if your ever thinking of upgrading just get the raynox mx3000 mod (yes it can work on a 37mm camera check my page for the tutorial)

  • vet man als ik een fisheye heb ga ik het proberen;)

  • dude thank you for making this video! you made it the day i got the lens

  • no problem dude
