Okay since my camera broke i've had nothing but a crappy camera with nothing to put the fisheye lens on, so i disided to try and make the fisheye lens fit.

Fisheye lens: Opteka
Camera: Olympus D-540

How i made it:
I used the carboard circle from the inside of the Toiletrole and but the fisheyelens at the top (my fisheye lens luckily fit perfect) then a taped it on i used alot of tape to make sure it wont fall out. Note: Keep the macro lens on the fisheye or it will be blury. I cut the carboard circle to fit when the camera lens pops out and then i cut little snips round it so i can tape it on (i havnt been able to tape it on im still working out how to do that) anyway i held the fisheye lens with my hand it was shit at first but all you need to do is zoom in a littlebit to get rid of the major vig and walla a fisheye lens what works on any digital camera... Only problem is attaching it but im guessing all you need to do it tape it on and since your not taping the actual lens only the carboard you wont be damaging it (unless you dont tape it enough) any way good look trying to make it cya
