| | | Cheap fisheye for compacts I don't know if it's any good but it looks interesting enough.
I'm almost tempted to go and buy a cheap compact camera to try it out! How ingenious are 'hooman beans' ? Wide-Angle and Fish-Eye Camera Lens Adptor for $5
Anyone here willing to have a bash?

Anyone here willing to have a bash? Acher | You could experiment with a strong negative spectacle lens before the camera with the cam set on
'close-up' - auto focus now works on infinity and the set-up sucks in more angle [but not fisheye] as this mimics the way a superwide angle lens works |

| | | Re: Cheap fisheye for compacts Not sure if it's a red herring! I have Norton Protection Centre and it flagged up a warning when I tried this site. Intrusion attempt, http fake AV install request. I know Norton gets its knickers in a twist sometimes when I upload photos and mutters about Bloodhound.exploit, but I thought I'd mention it just in case

Macafee has a big green tick on it.
I thought the concept of adapting a compact this way sounded quite fun.
Get an iMAC if you're worried about intrusions! LOL
