PC 109 Wide Angle Lens

Recommended Posts

I'm a little bleary eyed from searching the web for a wide angle lens that will fit a Sony PC 109.
.43 to .50 will do. I just can't find with or without adapter rings to fit this camera.
I'm new to video so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

That's what I'm looking for. The PS 109 takes a 25mm mount. I knew they were out there.

Thanks.

Or you can go the cheap route and buy a Kenko .45 from B&H photo.com
I considered the same thing and then thought that I can buy 3 Kenko lenses to 1 smaller expensive lense. I bought a lense filter/protector too but I just took it off cuz I can just go buy 2 more if it gets scratched. ha.
Now it is way bigger than the Cookie, so if you want to go for size then go with the Cookie.
When I buy a really wide angle I'm probably gonna buy the Cookie one myself.

Yeah I just ordered one of the better (?) Kenko lenses for about $80.
At least it said it was a 25mm thread. That's where I was haveing the problem. Not even the owner's manual made mention of the the lens mount.

Just for your future reference, when i was searching for a lens for my PC109 i discovered the SONY own brand 0.6 lens.
This SONY0.6 is actually wider angle than the Kenko 0.5!!!!:S(i'm not quite sure why)

I chose the Kenko 0.5 but when i decide to get a wider field of view i'll go for the Sony 0.6 as it seems really well made and is made for the 25mm thread.
Part number is VCL-0625S

I use a Kenko .45, it fits perfectly without stepup rings.



I have a Sony .6. I bought the Kenko .45 and compared the two. The Sony .6 actually had a wider viewing angle than the Kenko .45. I would go with the Sony .6. You can find them cheap on Ebay.
