Is there a converter for those Nikon MILC cameras? I'd like to attach this lens (with such converter) to a J1 and shoot handhold :ͻ)

There's a guy on my local CL that's selling a 6mm f5.6 fisheye that looks almost as big ...

I've used that lens. It is a very fun optic. It's angle of view is 220º, so it literally can see behind itself.

I'm sure you can modify an golf umbrella and use it as a lens hood

But the Q's 'normal' FL is just 7.7mm, so the 6mm lens is AOV-equivalent to 22mm on APS-C or 34mm on 135/FF -- only mildly wide. Naw, stick it on a NEX.
