Wide Angle lens test

I recently fitted a wide angle lens for a mobile phone onto my Tello, and here is the first proper video of the results.
Unfortunately, there was a gusty wind so the image stabilisation and positioning are both working overtime.

Taken in John Forrest National Park, Western Australia where it is the middle of winter!

You can see the edge of the lens occasionally, especially when turning.

Here are a couple of pics of the lens...

Good idea! How did you plug the lens?

There is a metal ring glued around the tello lens and the fisheye lens is magnetic.

As lieronet ^^^ says, the lens comes with 2 rings that stick onto the phone (or Tello) and the lens has a magnet in the base that holds it to the metal ring. You can see the ring in the second of my photos above.

Interesting, thanks for the info.
