Saw this while searching for a fisheye lenses for the F828...

2.2x tele

0.25x fisheye

More details at:

Wonder if anyone try this lenses from Raynox? They seems to be quite well build from the pictures. But they do seem pricey. Their colours and design fits F828 perfectly! Awesome!

Ain't sure about that. Just saw it yesterday only. Will need to get to the streets to look for them!

Either you order them over the net, or you get them in Hong Kong.

Some people have reported average performance only.

Yeah i like it too...I am not sure what is the price available, but it does seem pricey to me. Anyone come across this?

Look cool, matching color with the Sony F828 somemore. But is the quality as good as the original sony one ?

I was drooling over the 2.2x telephoto lens. I can't seem to locate its price online. Any idea how much? It looks really fitting for the 828 and only at half the weight of sony's 1.7x converter. However, the thing is that we don't know about its quality and performance.
