I stated things wrong relative to where I got the Varifocal lens from, it came from Bangood. It's the 2 Mega Pixel one that I received, but I ordered the 3MP 2.8-12mm.
2MP 2.8-12 Bangood. From the rear, the lens element is recessed 2 to 3/16" into the barrel, there is a slight lip around that lens element, there is no lip around the barrel opening, just a straight shot down to the lens element. I was going to glue the IR filter across the back of the lens barrel, is this wrong? This is the way I see all the ones on line installed.
I got Treeye mixed up because I had just checked them to see if a lens I ordered from them had been shipped, giving me their name, on the brain so to speak! I'll correct my post.
If I understand what you are saying correctly, you are going to drop the IR lens down the barrel to the lip of the rear element lens, try to get it centered and glue it. That would give you a recess from the rear of the barrel to the IR filter. That doesn't sound right to me! However it's all new to me so I'm not sure.
Whoops, I really messed up. I apologize for jumping/butting in with another subject (the verifocal lens)! I reread the above and saw you guys were discussing the 1.2 lenses from Treeye and then read the comment about the Varifocal lens being better and my brain (or lack of) took over and ran with my problem.
