I have an old Beaulieu R16 camera with a 10mm Switar lens. In order to use filters over the lens I have to have to use a step-up ring from 32mm to 49mm.

What I'm now looking for is a wide-angle adaptor in order to make the image wider.

Here's what I want to know:

Is there anyone who makes w/a adaptors with a 49mm thread?
Will it vignette the frame?
Will it vignette the frame if I add it + filters?
Where can I buy a wide-angle adaptor in Canada? (Be specific - I know it can be bought at photography shops and all-in-one stores but give me names, people!)

And if you're doing a step-up from 32mm to 49mm, I'd doubt you'd get vignetting on the lens. The wide-angle lens for my TRV900 just screws on the front and is barely visible in the frame (it's visible in the corners of the overscan area which doesn't usually get seen on a TV).
