How can I find out if I can put extra lenses on my DV cam. I cant seem to find out anything in the manual.

Look closely to the metal around the lens glass and see if there is threading. If there is you can add lenses. I'm not sure about the optura, but it is probably 30.5mm or 37mm if it can indeed accept add on lenses. You can get lenses at B&H and even some of the consumer-oriented electronics stores carry generic filters and lens adapters.

There appears to be threading around the inside, but not on the outside. Would this be correct?

Looks like Canon does make some additonal lenses for this model. I don't know if it would be the best way to go with buying thiers or a 3rd party.
