Wide angle lens for v3?

The view inside my bluebird house is limited. I would like a wide angle lens that doesn’t distort the image too much.

I took a stab and bought a lens from an Amazon seller. The lens threads into the mount just like the original, but in order to get the image in focus, the lens has to be screwed out to the last thread.

Here are photos of the replacement lens


This is the Amazon seller

I have this lens coming tomorrow. Again, I am guessing.

Focal length? Notice the second seller has a wide variety of lenses. The camera is mounted about 4” to 5” above the nest. I would like the image sharp from the nest up to the lens.

Any ideas which one I should get?
