MANY old (and a few new) ".42X" Series VII fisheye lens converters

are available, and most are fairly good on camcorders (a few are excellent),

though many are uncoated (may or may not cause problems). These can be

adapted with step-up rings (I often use 37->52mm, then 52->Series VII,

though some of the converters also have a 46mm mounting thread inside the

Series VII thread...).
