Aiptek GVS and wide angle lens- which one?
I had the Sunpak but it was a waste of money.
Did a search and found some info but the link to the Raynox lens had expired.
TIA

I have a Raynox but it is for the older Aiptek HD, if I can find it (and it fits) I will sell cheap. I use mine out the back window and don't want the wide angle. Mine is held on by a magnet and has to be taped to actually stay in place..

I use the same Sony that used to thread into the lens of my now-departed Sony Mini-DV camera. The model # is VCL-0625 S. I attached it to the Aiptek using electrical tape and it has survived several races so far.
Here is some footage from Road Atlanta.

The pre-GVS models have a smaller lens diameter. The wide angle adaptors for these are magnetic ring models that NEED tape for in-car apps.
The GVS model has a larger lens diameter. The Raynox clamp-on style works for these.

We use the "Digital Optics" 0.45 wide angle on our Aiptek and it's great.
Here's video of this weekend's NASA race at Putnam with that setup:
