I bought the lens online from america but they seem to be more readily available and cheaper now. Google (or eBay) something like 'magnetic fisheye' and you should find one :) they are used on phones too. The camera is the #11 808 camera from eBay, although the #16 808 is apparently better.
The simple answer is that the gap between the camera's lens and the fish-eye lens is too big - between the two are the plastic body of the camera, the metal ring stuck to the camera (so the fish-eye lens will magnetically attach) and some more material on the fish-eye like the magnetic ring etc. Grinding some of the plastic material off of the camera body and gluing the lens on instead does it improve it a bit. It's also not quite central since I'm just plonking it on. Hope that helps.
Ah yes, and like this guy says, the curvature of the body does make it normally sit not quite straight and true, which does affect it. /watch?v=pIaulFhH7ZM

I've got the same thing on my camera. Not a big deal but I was just curious. Thanks for the response.
where did you buy it? i want it so bad :P
Just curious (I'm a little ocd) but why are the corners of the lenses visible in the picture?
