3. Canon HV20 Wide Lens

Canon HV20 Wide Lens
Here is a 0.45x wide lens for a Canon HV20 or a Canon HV30 - this wide lens has 12x zoom through so it works well with the Canon 10x zoom - it has a rear thread that is bigger than the Canon lens thread - that's good - and it has a thread in front so filters can be attached.
Canon HV20 and HV30 mounting thread: 43mm
0.45x wide lens - 52mm - does not vignette
Front filter thread size: 67mm
A 72mm or 77mm Step-Up ring works with front filters

35mm equivialent: 53mm x 10 = 530mm
53mm x 0.7x = 37mm x 10 = 370 mm
The Original Canon wide lens is very good.
0.7x - zoom through 10x
- works with Canon HV20 and HV30
Yet - it has no front threads
thus, no filters can be easily attached
The 0.45x works just fine
- 67mm front thread
- wide and zoom through more than 10X
- works with Canon HV20 and HV30
- available now in 2008
Canon HV20 and HV30
35mm equivalent: 53mm x 10 = 530mm
53mm x 0.45x = 23.85mm x 10 = 238.5 mm

do you have any HD video with and without the lens to compare?
I will have to shoot some images.
I keep the 0.45x wide lens on pretty much all the time.
0.45x zoomed through 10x to 238.5mm is typically pretty long for what I shoot. Often I am up close and wide. A 53mm wide is typically not wide enough for me.
HV20 / HV30 lens info:
Optical zoom = 10x
35mm equivalent: 53mm x 10 = 530mm - no wide lens
53mm x 0.45x = 23.85mm x 10 = 238.5 mm - wide lens
Let me know how you like it when you get it.
Remember - the thread size at the back of the wide lens ought to be LARGER than the thread size of your camera lens.
What camera will you put it on.
It works fine an a Canon HV20/30

I also ordered this:
fotodiox.com/shop/product_info.php?cPath=1_17_44&products_id=569
Going to make a review video when I get them both.
bestbatt.com/Canon_BP_2L24H_Battery_p/bbbp2l24h.htm
Canon BP-2L24H Li-Ion Rechargeable Camcorder Battery
In January 2008 BestBatt sold it for $35
Now, in June 2008 BestBatt has a price of $49
It may be 2400 mAh

Also, thinking about a mini stabilizer.
After I get that I will do one mother of a review video.
1.Get a 43/52mm step up ring
2.Get a fisheye thats 52mm like this one and have no vignette?

The one I used is 0.45x - it zooms through 10:1+
ought to work just fine
Your lens may not zoom through all in focus.
The wide fish eye ought to be fine at full wide
