1. The hf200 has a 37mm thread for wide angle lens. You may be able to find an adaptor, but i would be a little worried about the weight. Here is a link scoll down to view the lenses avaliable.

2. I use the silicon lube that i put on my o-rings, don't use much!!
3.Yes the lens does self prime, if you look at the lens mounting ring on the housing, you will see 2 slots going through to the outside of the ring at the top and bottom. I found that as long as you hold it level when going under it works fine. I have had to take the lens off underwater a couple of times in dirty conditions to get dirt out from between the lenses.
Also i use my camera in P mode so i can focus closer and some times
it will focus on the lens until something better or with more contrast is in front.
