Unfortunately, the brand names were missing from most - but
the one that worked best on the Nikkor 28mm f2.8 AIS was unlike
the rest in that it was sold as a combination close-up lens and
fisheye converter (the rear element section unscrews from the
rest and serves as a fairly strong single-element close-up
lens...). If you have a different lens to put it on, it may
well be that another converter would work better (the one above
is not as good on my video camcorders as a couple of other
fisheye converters I have).
