r2hubert 0 #1 December 23, 2004 Hi I'm looking for a step up ring to go from a lens 30mm on a camcorder 37mm. I already have the opposite 37mm to 30mm but can't find 30mm to 37mm. If some of you know where to find this let me know, thanks! -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute. It only functions when it's open." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just by holding the lens in front of the camcorder I can tell you it works just fine, the point is where can I find such a step up ring. I don't want to end up using gaffers tape only Thanks -- Renaud -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute. It only functions when it's open." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brains 2 #8 December 23, 2004 I have a bunch of different step-up/down rings in my camera box. Are you going to be in eloy? If so i probably have what you need and would be happy to help you out with it. If not, let me know if one of the other Hollister peeps will be there.

r2hubert 0 #9 December 23, 2004 I was planing on going and then change in plan I'll be skiing instead For the step down ring I just found one on B&H web site: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=productlist&A=details&Q=&sku=357554&is=REG Don't know if any other Hollister peeps will show up for the Eloy boogie... -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute.

SkymonkeyONE 4 #10 December 23, 2004 They have 30-37 step up and 37-30 step down at Best Buy. At least they do here in Fayetteville. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a question about that, as far as I know most cameras are 30mm, and you need the step up to 37mm to put your wide angle on. If you have a 37mm thread on your camera, and you put a 30mm lens on it, won't it show the black edges on the video? Iwan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
r2hubert 0 #12 December 23, 2004 Not necessarly on the Video but maybe on the computer import.... I tried by just holding the lens and it looks good... But maybe with the image stabilization the corner will show up... I'll let you know after testing. -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute. It only functions when it's open."
