The NEW ROKINON 8mm Ultra Wide Angle Fisheye Lens is the most affordable 8mm Fisheye Lens in the market.

For cameras with full-frame sensors, the lens will produce pictures with a semi-circular image and close images will appear proportionately large for a dramatic effect.

Great lens for Sharp Solid silver Drunklando I bought this lens some time ago and I used to create some of my favorite photos, of course, do not use this lens every day, but I must say I was with this goal more often than expected. The return is only that it is completely manual. You must manually configure the opening to the outside that I liked a lot, you normally see in those days. Overall, I recommend this lens to all. You can see some of the photos I took with this lens on my CHEERS [...],!! 11 of 14 people found this review helpful. Pretty Good for the price of T. Fox This lens is a nice little toy, has a very wide field of view of good plans for art or photos you want to really capture the atmosphere. Of course, manual focus. Do not bother using it at full aperture (f / 3.5 5) - the contrast was poor and the not so good color, but the next stop (56) improves significantly. The cameras flash Booty will not really show what you are taking a picture of (apparently) so if you're inside you will definitely need an external flash with a diffuser, if you plan to use a tripod and a picture of something to be very still. The sharpness could be better - I was a bit disappointed by it. But probably not many other options for this type of lens to choose from. Be careful when using this lens, because the front glass element is enormous and will rub up against something that happened near it - always on the lens when not in use. I give it 3 stars mainly because the image quality was disappointing. Great Benefits FOV Feels like most good for the Focus is quite correctly labeled Cons Contrast is decent at higher f numbers, but purely useless wide open. Really cheap plastic used for blocker front of the lens flare (I forget what it's called) 6 of 7 people found the following review helpful. A sweet deal for absolute S. Johnson Chen, the images are as sharp as the Nikkor lenses. For the price I paid, this is a very sweet deal. See all 23 reviews ....
