Fisheye Lens Help

[J-rok]

I just got a Bower 8mm fisheye and was wondering if its possible to get a clear filter for it?... I've looked around and i haven't found any... do they even make them?...

Doesn't have a filter ring.

 

[J-rok]

so you can't attach a filter to it?...

 

[Mag]

Not easily.

 

[J-rok]

do they make a filter for it?...

 

[Bmo.]

no. there is an attachment you can buy for some glass-protruding lenses to hold filters, but i dont think there is one for that lens. just dont worry about it, you dont need one

If this UV filter is for protecting the lens then i wouldn't do it, i would just keep the lens cap on up until 5 seconds before you snap the pic then put it back on. if youre filming upclose skiing/skateboarding then this investment may be short-lived.

Take care and keep both eyes open because the distance from a fisheye is deceiving through the viewfinder. (if you're gunna hold it away from your face... well then.... dont listen to me)

No. There are no filters for that lens. Unless you modded it by cutting off/grinding down the lens hood...

nevermind I'm retarded you can't do that. The front element protrudes
