death lens

century optics fisheye (mark 1 or mark 2) 145 degrees horisontally 180 diagonally. best fisheye for filming skating and the only one which can take the vx 2000 530 lines of resolution unlike a raynox mx3000 pro which can only handle 480 lines of resolution priced around $600-$700 new but if your looking for the mark 1 century no longer manufacture it so its rare to find it new. i only know of 2 shops which i can get it from but they will run out soon so ebay will be your last resort

that about somes it up

death lens

.3x Century Optics wide angle camcorder lens. Used by skateboarders. The name was coined by the danger of skating close to the skater with the camera.

I want a death, but they're so expensive. They look sweet on a vx1000.
