OK, I know this little camera isn't meant to handle add-on lenses and filters, but I just had to give this a try. I collected whatever I happened to have around and devised a functional sturdy adapter to use my 55mm items with. 55mm is HUGE for use with this camera, but since that was the size I already had invested in with other cameras, I made that my goal. I decided that I wasn't keen on the idea of attaching anything to the lens by way of magnets or anything else due to the delicate nature of it.
I had found these items while searching the web, and most seemed to be unavailable or just way too expensive:

and 9th item down... but I can't find it when I click on the website of the manufacturer

found it elsewhere, but seems pricey

Anyway, my solution was to create an adapter that would be removable but sturdy and allow the lens to move freely. This is what I came up with. (don't laugh) I used a sink flange, a heavy rubber washer type piece that you can get for pennies at a hardware store. The hole was perfect for the lens to move through, and the width made for a stable connection to the camera. I added an aluminum adapter tube that was in a box of unused photo junk... this one must be a bayonet style, there were no threads on the front. Any sturdy tube would probably do the trick. I mounted a 55mm adapter ring in the top of it (easy to get from ebay). It was a snug fit with a ring of electrical tape, so I did not need adhesive, although I cut a strip of electrical tape in half and put a piece in first to keep it from slipping back too far. I glued this whole thing to the rubber flange with low melt hot glue (better than high melt for flexibility) and I cut rings of automotive Velcro (this stuff has powerful adhesive to attach things to dashboards) I put the fuzzy part on the camera - if you do it the opposite way, you'll never get the camera out of your case if the interior is cloth. Be careful not to block the lens area with it.
It may not be pretty, but it's VERY strong.
For smaller lenses or filters, I think the top of a cheap flashlight would fit fine with a threaded ring mounted on top. It would probably look better and be lighter, but I wanted to use my existing 55mm stuff.
Here is what it looks like:

and the first image I took with the close-up lens attached. This was with flash. Enough flash was blocked to keep from blowing out the image, even in macro range.

I'll try telephoto later today and report back :)
