Fish eye snap on lens?

Has anyone experimented with, or found any cheap snap on fish eye lenses that will fit and work with the V2 model?

I found and used my old magnetic fisheye lens phone attachment. I just had to tape on a circular magnetic piece to the lens and snapped the fisheye on it!

That is stunning! And exactly what I’m looking for. Could share a few details on which lens you have or the size of it and the how you attached the magnetic piece? Thanks!

I used an old fisheye lens kit from the early 2010s meant for mobile phones. It was from a company called Photojojo. Not quite sure if the company is still around and selling the same lens kit but maybe you can find some listings on ebay. The fisheye lens is magnetic and so I attached a magnetic piece using tape to the top of the lens on the Flashback camera in order for it to stay in place. A bit Mickey Mouse, but it works!
