Waycool lenses (Australia) or Royal lens (Max Cohn) both do them although you won't (or didn't used to) find them on the website. Email Max and ask.*************** Not one shred of evidence supports the theory that life is serious - look at the platypus. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

indyz 1 #4 June 17, 2004 QuoteHmmmm, it's sad. Ready fit world now isn't it. Come on, man. I understand some of your previous complaints about a "ready fit world." But what do you expect this guy to do, mill his own step ring? Grind his own lenses? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diablopilot 2 #5 June 17, 2004 Edit: because I was in a pissy mood. A 30 second search on a major photographic retailers site is all it should take. There are even 25mm (the thread size on the PC 109) wide angle lenses available.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

jayhfx 0 #7 June 17, 2004 He posted the question here because I advised him to do it. The reason why is because he checked with 3 major dealers here in Canada and then I put him onto arguably the most extensive photo website around Bhphotovideo.com and they stated that they don't make one. After this he posted here. Maybe you could suggest some of the websites your talking about and "Help a brother out." jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kozakpeter 0 #8 June 17, 2004 Yeah. thanks Jay. I can't find one anywhere in Canada yet. Most relailer in the states i've talked to don't have em in stock. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 643 #9 June 18, 2004 If it is any consolation, none of the camera stores in Vancouver carry 25mm stepper rings. Ask Max Cohn (www.generationfreefly.com) to send you a 25mm to ?mm stepper ring. He is one of the first to offer stepper rings for this year's SONYs. Max said that he mailed me a stepper ring last week and I have been reading the manual on my shiny new Sony HC 40 this morning and am getting impatient and I really want to get my new camera in the air this weekend!!!!

DancingFlame 0 #10 June 21, 2004 I've just received stepper ring (25->37mm), manufactured by Raynox. Tiny plastic ring costs me $15 Wide angle lens (Sony VCL-0637) with HC-40 looks fat and ugly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 643 #11 June 24, 2004 I just received a 37mm to 25mm stepper ring from Max Cohn (www.generationfreefly.com). It is a great fit between my Diamond 0.3 (wide angle) lens and a SONY HC 40. The only disadvantage with this combination is its inability to focus at any but the widest zoom settings. That does not really matter as I prefer to set-and-forget while doing tandems.
