Or are it different cameras? I'm kinda confused. I believe it's the same but I'm not 100% sure.
Answer
They are all the same camera. Canon releases the same camera with a different name for different geographical regions.
Why? To slow the "gray market" trade.
What is the "gray market"? All camera manufacturers have authorized importers for different markets. These authorized importers then sell the cameras, lenses, etc. to re-sellers like Adorama or B&H or to dealers like your local camera shop or Wal-Mart or H.H. Gregg, etc. The authorized importer then pays fees to the manufactirer to support service centers, dealer training, etc.
However, it isn't illegal for you or I to buy cameras in, say, Singapore or Hong Kong and import them into our country. We can then sell them cheaper than sellers who bought from the authorized importer since we aren't paying out any money for service centers, etc. The consumer thinks he is getting a "deal" - until he needs service. If he's in the USA, no authorized service center for Canon, Nikon, Sony, Pentax, etc. will service the camera or lens or whatever it is - even if the consumer offers to pay. He is told to send the camera, lens, whatever, back to where it was originally purchased.

Can you buy cheap (even fake) Nikon D3000 lenses (fish eye) in Hong Kong that are good quality?
zoing.
They don't have to be real Nikon products, they can be fake or different brands.
As long as they do the same job, don't ruin my camera or anything.
Answer
Sigma makes a nice 8 mm generic fisheye lens. It costs more than the Nikon 10.5 mm fisheye though, so unless you need full 180 degree coverage, you may want to buy the Nikkor 10.5 mm.
There is an alternative. Tokina, one of the best generic lens makers, has a 10-17 mm fisheye zoom which costs less that the two mentioned above
