Adding a Wide Angle Lens to the Miro Flip HD

I use my Miro Flip Ultra HD to record Youtube movies – but if you’ve ever used one you’ll notice that it has a very narrow field of view – for a while I was holding my Canon wide angle adapter in front of the lens, but I recently found the wide angle kit by Sunpak.

The best way I could find to attach the adapter ring was with super glue, so far it has held really well and let’s me record while standing closer to the subject. I chose the largest adapter ring (the lens comes with 4) and held it in place for about 15-20 seconds while the glue set.

This now opens up some doors with the Miro – I’m going to try to put together an adapter for some of my high end Nikon lenses, which should be able to give me greater control of the depth of field.
