    Anybody know if there is shops in Ireland that sell or order video camera lenses for prosumer cameras?

    I only found one shop on Georges St that does lenses.

    Looking for Raynox XL-3000 to be precise, would order it online but delivery, customs, vat and all that nearly doubles the price...

    Recently bought a "prosumer" camcorder myself and the best place definitely seems to be eBay and usual online outlets, though I would imagine any half decent camera shops in the city would be willing to order one for you.

    You'd be surprised, I checked camera shops in Blanch and city centre and so far nobody orders lens unless its a shops brand lens (ie sony lens from sony shop).
    Guess its back to ebay..

    Ironically I was going to suggest Blanch's camera shop (in the centre) as that's where I got my canon camcorder. You'll probably save money on Ebay anyway...

    EDIT: Behold my new toy
