Fishe eye ???? HELP :(


I have a 35-80mm lens with a 52mm filter size...I bought a fish eye lens that attaches to that lens, here is the problem..it will attach w/ the macro ring on it but when I want to take a pic w/fish eye effect I need to take the macro ring off and when I do that the lens won't attach to my 80mm. I took it to the local camera shop and they said I would need a double threaded adapter ring...I can't seem to find one? So is there even such a thing...please don't kill me you guys I got the lens on ebay...I couldn't help myself.

  What you need to do is take the lens to a camera shop and find out what the mount size is. If it's, say, 66mm, you need to find a 52mm to 66mm step up ring. If the lens was made, then someone made a mount for it.

Have fun and keep shooting,
