Hi Panasonic-ians!

I've been 'away' from the forum for quite some time cos I was (and still am) bogged down with multiple projects, tests and readings.. aggh.. pls pray for us

Am quite curious whether there's such a thing as a "fisheye FILTER lens", and how many different type of filter lens is there available which can be attached onto the FZ5?

Many thanks!

Yes you can get fisheye lens converters.
Although they are not meant for the pana.
I had a 0.45x semi fisheye meant for video corder, but it was 55mm thread, so i mount on the raynox tube.

Sadly the vignet was serious.

Might need to source around for other alternatives, mine was a sony lens.
