  1. <p>hi there, if you would like to try something even cheaper but that works as well<br>

    all you need is one of those fisheye peephole lenses for doors, find one without any marks<br>

    using a lens cap for your favorite lens drill a hole in the center of the lens cap<br>

    you dont need the bit that screws into the back of the lens and locks it into the door<br>

    fit the front part of the lens into the hole and glue it in so that the lens base is flush with the inside of the bottom of the lens cap<br>

    you dont need the bit that screws into the back of the lens and locks it into the door<br>

    you dont want the bottom of the fisheye marking your lens front element<br>

    this works better with wide angle lenses</p>

  2. <p>thanks every one for you helping myself and my student out<br>

    we have to go to a sponsering store and buy a new charger, i will stick to my 20d-30d cameras<br>

    the 550d is still a very new model down here in new zealand</p>

  3. <p>hi the battery teminals can corode or get a film on them stopping the battery current, get hold of a pencil with a rubber on the tip<br>

    give the battery contacts a slight rub with this mild adbrasive and see if it pops back in to life</p>

  4. <p>hi you can modifiy one of those cheap phoenix or as we call them here seagull right angle viewers<br>

    they can be unscrewed and with a bit of super glue and tweaking fit the camera.or if you have live view what about a small mirror</p>

  5. <p>hi one of my photography students have managed to lose her new 550d battery charger for the battery LP E8<br>
