It'll mount the MkII, but it will look like you shot the image through a pipe. Not much use, really, unless you're going for that effect.

For full frame you're probably better off going with the 14mm Rokinon. The 8mm on a crop camera is about the same as the 14mm on a full frame anyway, just more fishey from what I've seen.

Thank you Roman!
Did you use some fisheye correction software on this beach pic or is it prefect horizon line?

Also I love how this lens can make ordinary object look interesting :)

Is your focus scale off?

It's just absolutely ridiculous what this lens pulls off, still loving it.
