No. Fisheyes make it so you can be close and get the shots. Idk if youve ever filmed but without a fisheye you have to be further away and cant get as good of angles sometimes cause heads will get cut out or something. it also distorts the spots that arent focused.

Kinda..
A fisheye is like a wide angle lens, but it add barrel distortion to the picture. This allows you to get closer to an object and it pulls objects closer to the shot. The only downside is you might get vignetting, which is those black corners you see in some videos. Vignetting is not good, it doesn't look cool, and it isn't supposed to be there. If you have a full circle of vignetting and you think thats what a fisheye is supposed to do, you need to do some camera research.
haha well whatever boston says goes. dont fight with cameras about him. you will lose EVERY time.. haha

I have a question, I have a hv30, and it has a 43mm lens. I want to get the kenko but in the description it says you can use it with cameras with a 37mm lense or smaller. Does this mean I can't buy a 43 to 37 ring and use the kenko?

You can, i dunno how the vignetting would be. Probably will be fine though. I would just save a lil more and get the Opteka 43mm baby death

I will probably go for that if I get a job and earn some money. Thanks.

The camera I plan on getting has a thread size of 37mm and I plan on getting a 37mm fisheye, but what is the point for larger fisheyes?
Brian Boston

Larger cameras with bigger lenses.

I Have a Sony DCR-TRV33 and on the Lense it has the following numbers in this order: 1, 8/3,7-37.
I want to get a kenko but everything is confusing to me. Please help.
Sorry, I'm a noob when it comes to Camcorders )=

30mm filter size. You need a 30mm to 37mm step up ring to use a kenko.
