Go to the Mass order thread and look for Jim McGill as he brings in the Raynox brand of add on lenses from wide, to tele to macro.

Here you can look at the different magnification like 0.66x, 0.5x, 0.79x (Most Ex as it is new).

Read through them and look for Jim McGill at the Mass Order thread when you are more likely to buy as you can arrange with him to try them out first.

is it good to buy different filters other than PL and UV as the basics? i seen those light 4 point flare ones which looks damn cool.. wonder if they are expensive..

Very different and mine are over 10 years old as I bought them when I first started with 35mm film cams. Cathay Photo should still have stock of them. Get a set like Portrait or Wedding or Landscape. The set comes with a filter holder, and about 2 or 3 filters. Make sure you get the P-Series one as it is supposed to suit 28mm rather than the A-Series which is for 35mm.

Read up at www.cokin.com

thanks bro.. so i supposed.. getting tianya's bundled package would be a good chioce then? im just worried about the compatibility issues if i were to use hoya UV filter beneath it as well.

thanks for your many help, im sure you benefited alot of our fellow fuji-ians here as well.
