RE: [APML] fisheye aurora

John, you can tilt the camera I guess 45 degrees, but of course you wont get
the whole sky.  But the price is right - $10.

Chris,
    I think that hub caps are better than screw on fishes in some respects.
Your limiting magnitude and optical quality are much better. However! One of
the neat things in aurora pics is capturing the convergence that occurs near
the zenith. This would tend to occur somewhere behind the camera strut and
body with a hubcap...
