hi, this thread is a continuity of the one I post earlier on :-
Is CMOS sensor really better than CCD's?

Now that I have overcome "not-so-siong feeling of getting the video quality as I expected" from the DC-22, I'm beginning to yean for a wider lens coverage of the DC-22. Many a time, when I'm using the DC-22, I have to stand quite far away to take video of my wife/baby or being obstructed in a room. And felt the inadequacy of the DC-22 not able to take external wide-angle lens adopter. Sigh, that sickening feeling of NOT getting a SONY handycam is back again, especially since it can also accept the 0.7x converter.

Now, my desire is the HDD-based SONY SR-300 (40GB HDD), retail price at $1,999. Drooling my saliva at it everytime i walked past the Sony gallery. Piss-off that I can't sell off my DC-22 nor having the money to buy a new camcorder. Hope this kind of feeling will kinda pass too.

Hmm... just some rumbling compaints from a dissatisfied soul. Hehehe...

You mean DC-22 does not have screw thread to attach wide angle lense?

unfortunately, yes (or no), DC-22 does not have screw thread for any external lens attachment.
