build a $4 lens with interchangeable kaleidoscopic filters for any digital camera

the fit
we need something that will fit over the lens of a digital camera and connect to some of the pieces from the kaleidoscope. this will vary depending on the camera you have. i have an olympus and the lens slides out when activated.

i looked for something that would fit snugly around the lens. i came across a small cardboard tube of glow bracelets that was just larger than the circumference of my camera lens. this was a good find, because it had these black plastic caps on each end. these are easy to carve up and make a custom fit. check out the pics.

the bracelets were $1, and given the fact that the bracelets are still usable and you are only recycling the packaging, i'm not sure we should include that in the price. either way, it's cheap!
