Very nice:o Looks to be @ $200 for the DIY kit. Wish you could have the best of both worlds with a flick of a button.:( Seems to be a little dis-assembly required to install the kit which makes it more a permanent fix. There have been many times I wish I had a different lense option on my GoPro. I can't imagine C mount lenses are all that cheap either:rolleyes:
Never a shortage of things in this world to spend our hard earned cash on:evil:

This looks to be the case:( Completely different animal after the conversion. Weather that's good or not depends on what it's being used for. I can only imagine the discussions this is starting on the GoPro forum:rolleyes:

C mount lenses aren't too pricy depending on the source and the quality. I've been looking to replace our DSLR but this system paired with our new Black will almost fill that need. I don't care if I can't take it in the water, I'm not going in the water if I can help it. :D
