The vx1000 has 58mm lense threads so you wont need step up rings. step up rings give you less distortion and less of an angle, well it depents on where your stepping to. skate or die

sh!t, maybe the vx1000 has 52mm lense threads. I'm not lucky enough to have one.......yet. well the step up ring with lessen the distortion we love so much, but step up rings cost like 5 bucks so go ahead and try it.
