gvs + raynox lense will not focus
I recently picked up the GVS and Raynox wide angle like you list here, however when I use the wide angle lense, the camera will not focus...did you have any problems with this??
As soon as I take the lense off, it focuses fine. I tried checking to see if I could set a fixed focus, but did not see an option to control the focus manually.

Here is gvs normal:

I see no blurring on the edges and this actually attached to the camera without tape!!!

i may have found the answer, i tried it again but with 'macro' on when the wide angle lense was on, and it seemed to focus. I am going to do some testing and will report back.
on a side note, after testing, the cam does not hold the macro mode after shut-off, so it has to be set every time, this cant be the solution can it? it would sure be a PIA to have to manually set the macro mdoe every time before recording???!!!!
