DIY fish eye lens (some pics of my attempt)
Found this on another forum
http://www.enteric.org/fisheye/
intresting idea and doesnt cost £££, im sure the images arnt exactly brilliant but for a £5 u cant really complain
also i have found this which is a bit more professional looking, u can buy thifor 40 quid

was also thinking that i could cut the tube down which should bring the lens closer to the camera lens and such be a bit better.
also as i told my mate, im upgrading my camera to a digital slr sometime after crimbo so dont really want to shell out 200 quid on a fish eye lens for the Dimage z2 when changing it. also its a bit of fun
