Fish Eye

Does anyone know if there is a good fish eye lens for a Canon Powershot sd960?

I've seen a couple in person on an older model. But, I don't know if there is one that will fit my camera. If anyone knows of some good fish eye or wide angle lenses, let me know.
Thanks

Since the Canon SD960 does not use interchangeable lenses, you will be looking for an add-on lens that can be added to your existing lens. That said, unless the lens was designed by Canon for that specific lens on your camera, the chances of any such lens actually covering a 180 degree view or better is pretty slim. The other problem is how do you physically attach any lens to your specific camera? Some P&S cameras have filter threads on the end of the lenses or provide a special adapter so lenses or filters (notably polarizing filters) can be attached. You will notice no such threads or adapters are made for your model Canon

If you look at many of the alleged add-on fisheye lenses only through in a lot of pincushion aberration into the resulting image, but do not cover 180 degrees, by any stretch of the imagination.

Here are all the accessories supplied for your camera by Canon .. you will notice that NO add-on lenses are provided ..... by Canon
