So I bought an OPteka Fisheye lens, 0.35 x AF for my Sony Alpha 230…I have a standard 18-55mm lens….does this mean I can't just put the Opteka on it and use it? I've noticed that it doesnt work in autofocus mode…please help!

i've been looking to buy this very adapter for my canon xs, are there any differences between the .20x vs .35x? Im assuming it has to do with magnification but im not too educated when it comes to photography and don't know how one would be different from the other.

With mine there was a "macro adapter" that came with the lens. If you don't have that on, the lens could be trying to focus on the inside of the glass, not focusing through it.
If that doesn't work, try putting your lens in MF then focusing by eye.
I took this (http://jpgmag.com/photos/2195015) with the Canon 18-55mm that came with my XSi -- I'm sure it's the same lens. (The fisheye I used in that picture was the .20x adapter, not the .35x but I have them both, both work the same).
