and why would i want to glue the filter to the camera?

@aequitas18 you are not glueing the filter but the step down ring so you can use it's threads to screw any filter or lens you want

ya consegui el adaptador 43-37 pero cuando lo presento a la boca de la camara, parece no tener mucho soporte, ya que se mueve, no se si despues de haberlo pegado tuviste elgun problema como el que se haya despegado o algo asi???

[Potxoki]

@JRQEOS Despues de pegarlo no se mueve ni se cae, solo hay que tener cuidado al roscar la lente. Lo que te recomiendo es que uses un 46-37 para que no te aparezca viñeteado alrededor del video (con el 43-37 se ve parte del interior de la lente). Tendrás que hacer un poco de bricolage pero los resultados son mucho mejores

[Potxoki]

No, the other way around, you need a 37mm wide angle lens.
