Fisheye with built in focus motor ??

  1. I have a friend with a Nikon D60 and he would like to buy a fisheye lens, but is there a fisheye lens with built in focus motor ?

    Here is a link to Sigma web site / fisheye page, these fisheye, especially the 10mm have HSM motor and where designed for the D60 type of camera amongst other, the only setback will be with the 4" fisheye dome port available nowadays, I doubt the petal of the lense shade will clear inside the dome port, but a 6" should be fine.

    Thanks for the fast answer, I could have just looked in the Sea & Sea catalog :lol:. Anyone know how the Sigma 10 mm fisheye will work behind a Sea & Sea NX dome port - extension ring ???

  4. I'm not a Sea & Sea user, but you should not need an extension with this lens and anything like a 6'' or bigger dome will do well with this lens

    Nikon 10.5mm would also work.

  6. Alex, the 10.5mm would work in manual focus only, the D40/D40x/D60 not having an internal motor, the rely solely on AF-S type lens.
