Wide Angle Close Focus?


Okay, this my seem really simple and many of you probably know about this, but I just found out recently so I\'m inquiring. Be gentle.

The other day, I was messing with my buddy\'s Canon 5D with his 24mm L USM II lens on it. I must say that that is one of the nicest lenses I\'ve used. The one thing that really stood out to me was that it was the minimum focus distance. I was getting really close and was still able to focus but I thought that my perception was being shaded by my surprise. But when I went home and looked it up, it turns out that the minimum distance is ~ 3.0 inches.

So my question is there anything for Nikon mount in the wide range (DX or FX) that can get in that close? I know the Nikkor 24mm is at about 12 inches and the Nikkor 20mm gets in at 10 inches, but that\'s all I know. Anything get closer than that?
