Rigging a wide angle lense

Recommended Posts

Unrelated to skydiving but I have a Panasonic SV-AV100 (the tiny camcorder that records to SD cards) I'm curious if anyone knows if its Possible to fit it with a wide angle lense, I dont think it has threads so it will have to be a MacGyver job, I was guessing someone in the free fall video world had come across something like this .. pm me please

My opinion is that it's pap... certainly no good for skydiving without modding (which I've heard about and seen done).... but you can find them VERY cheap on e-bay.

It doesn't have threads but has a clip on thing that bites into threads if you had them... might just work for you if there's a lip or something it could clip into.

Go down to your local camera shop and feign interest so they'll let you take a look and handle one... then walk away ("till payday") and go buy one off the net secure in the knowledge it'll work for you.
