+1 for the rhyme
I got a vx2100 in october, filmed with it all winter, and am very satisfied with it's performance...fortunately, I have paid off the camera and now have sufficient funds to buy a wide angle lens.
Problem is, I dont know anything about them. Does the lens have to be Sony to fit? Does Sony make wide angles? What are reliable non shitty brands? Are you there God, it's me Margaret?
Anywho, help me out with a link or some suggestions of wide angles that are fricka fresh and work with a vx2100.
say word.

It looks like a really nice lens. You can usually judge quality of the lens by the amount it costs. Personally, I think that .7x is not much magnification, and I would look for something more like .6x or so; not fisheye, but wide enough to make it more worth it.
