Yeah ok I see. Yeah with tubes you still wouldn't be able to use that lens as a full wide angle 15mm lens then I can see how it would be useful for its use as macro lens though... Hmm... I'm not convinced about the tubes ! Have you seen the Metabones adapter link I sent (I picked the Canon version because I would be getting the Laowa with Canon EF mount) ? Why didn't that seem like a good solution to you ?

No, you are missing the point.

Get the Laowa 7.5mm ultra wide angle lens.  On your camera it does the same job that a 15 mm lens does on different cameras.

And get a cheap extension tube for the close focus work you might want to do.
