Bower FishEye Wide Angle Lens?

I am considering buying this lens.

Anybody have any experience, feedback about it? Thank you

Well for $39 you should know that it is a piece of crap with terrible optical quality. It also wont truly give you the fisheye effect. It will be close though. As long as you are not fussy about image quality and you just want to play around with it go for it. It is only $40. Make sure the lens you are mounting it to has a 58mm filter size. This is a screw on adapter and will screw into the filter threads on the front of your lens.

A true fisheye lens will give you great image quality but they are expensive. Cost of a true fisheye will be between $500 and $1,000.
