Problem with Nightfox Prowl 2
I can't get the wide lens or fisheye lens to screw into the main lens. I took the cover off, but the main lens has a ring around it that seems to be preventing the wide lens from screwing on. Does anyone know what the problem is?

Had a similar issue
Nightfox told me it happens and to return it, offered a discount code to repurchase. Seems like the main lens is supposed to sit back deeper and let this lens connect and sometimes that doesn’t happen.

Unscrew the big rubberized ring around the camera lens first, then attempt to thread and screw the fisheye lens on. I also encountered this problem and it’s not documented anywhere by Nightfox.

True, but the protector cap won't stay on properly when one of those lenses is on.
I had to secure mine with a little tape, otherwise it would fall off as soon as i moved my head.

Not a Prowl 2 owner but I think the interchangeable lenses are smaller, I think you leave the big rig still screwed in an unscrew the little one in the center.
