eeeeer you got me there, not too sure realy, i would guess no it shouldent because its a magnefier not a wide angle adaptor, the minimum focal length of your camera is 37mm so the lens youve bought should in theory give you 74mm on minimum zoom and a maximum of 740mm on full zoom, you only get a fish eye effect when you go below 10mm i think so i would say no it shouldent, only a guess and my theorys normaly get blown out of the water, hopefully somebody who knows what there talking about can help out.

edit: 37mm should not be wide enough for the camera to see the adaptor, witch is what sounds like is happening, how far out do you have to zoom before the effect goes away?
