Hi all,
my 1 inch lens is finally here and I am happy and determined at the same time. it turns out the barrel is too big for my EIKI but I ain't letting that daunt me. I am going to custom build my own barrel to incorporate the lens into my EIKIs so help me God !!! Hope you're all having an awesome weekend and cheers !!!

You loose nothing trying ;-) Good luck and let us know.

You might have better luck having a machine shop turn down the lens barrel.
