Buy a rokinon fish with a nikon mount and then just get the adapter from nikon to canon? will it act like a spacer?

Why wouldn't you just buy the canon mount rokinon?


And the widest wide angle with no distortion is the tokina 11-16

...but it also depends on what the corner is on, the tramp surface is fine but thin lines like the net show the CA.
