Can any of you guys give me any tips on what to expect if i attach my fisheye lens to my macro lens. I've just bought a new INON macro lens and INON fisheye lens. I'm an amateur by the way.Thanks:blinking:

Thats a fair question but try to answer this:
Adding one lens on top of another lens all in front of the camera's main lens...is like adding a pair of eye glasses on top of another pair eye glasses in front of your eyes.
So the question is will adding more glass improve the image quality?

Which camera / housing combo ?

Yes, it does fit for it's how it was designed and according to its manual,you can stack more than 2 macro lens on it to allow for an even higher magnification macro imaging and as for the fish eye,it becomes a close focus wide-angle imaging or "wide macro". I'm using canon powershot s70 with waterproof casing DC40,strobe is sunpack g-flash.

Adding a fish eye infront of a macro lens seems hard to get a good focus, as for 2 macro lens, man... it's so good.
How about the fisheye behind the macro?

If you think you will get good quality images by stacking lens on top of lens on top of lens etc. try it out.

If you're talking about chromatic aberration, I am afraid it won't work.
If you imagine how you can observe the spectrum of 7 colors by using a spectrum, that's the kind of refraction you are getting for the chromatic abberation. e.g. Purple fringing, the color of purple are being seperated (due to refraction) from the rest. You cannot add a "good lens" in front of the lens that would give you a correction, nor put a "good lens" behind to do the job. A color filter (filter out purple) behind the lens may help you to filter some of the purple color, but then you can always use photo shop or other software to achieve the effect.
