Hi,

Unfortunately, the only real way to avoid this darkening--which comes from the lens housing itself getting in the way of the light source--is to improve the lighting. Try to position your light in such a way that it's on the far side of the lens, but not in the lens's line of sight.

As for conversion lenses, in my experience add-on lenses for non-SLR cameras are mostly junk. They tend to distort images, mess up the focal length, etc. I wouldn't recommend them.

Good luck!
