    Question How to fit Kenko Fisheye on a FM 10?

    I recently bought a Kenko fisheye lens, but disregarded how it would fit the camera. I have a manual camera, I believe it is 52mm...how would I be able to fit the Kenko fisheye (looks like a screw on) onto the camera? Or what adaptor ring is best?

    Thanks for reading this and please leave anything you believe is helpful!! thanks!

    screw on fisheye adapter lens.hmmmmmmm

    ok you need a "step up ring" from 52mm(nikkor 50f1.8 is 52mm thread) to the thread size of the fisheye adapter... so lets say the fisheye is 62mm thread..." 52-62 step up" is what you'll need.

    BUT.....IF THE FISHEYE IS 52MM.....SCREW IT ON

    Most of these fisheye convertors

    have a series VII mount on them, so what you need is a 52mm to Series VII adaptor

    please see this link for adorama's selection of these adaptors

    They cost about USD6
