![]() The fisheye effect on a 1.6x crop body would be even less. I use it on a the 1.3x crop Canon 1D Mk2N, and it works very well, although with less fisheye effect than would be the case with a full frame sensor. Note the the greatest fisheye effect is realized when using this lens with a full-frame body. Whether or not a fisheye shot can be made totally straight is probably a subject for debate. This lens can be used to get a shot that would not normally be possible without moving a lot further away from the subject, and the fisheye effect can be somewhat mitigated with software if desired. With this in mind, different compositions can be created depending on how one chooses to frame the photo. The lens creates barrel distortion that gets more dramatic toward the top and bottom of the image, while the center of the image and the middle of the frame along the horizontal center axis remains straight and distortion free nearly to the edge of the frame. ![]() Often an ordinary scene can be made interesting with the use of this little gem. The Canon f2.8 fisheye lens is a great addition to any camera bag and is very useful when a very wide scene must be captured, or for times when a creative effect is desired. Shortest focus less than 0.25m (less than 0.75 feet)Ĥ different colour built in revolver filters, easy to shift with the revolver ring.Ī fixed built in lens shade, wich also helps protect the front-lens.Įxcellent lens for wide angle and creative effects This is a lens you will never miss out on focus with! Stopped at 22 its almost full focus from infinity to very very close. ![]() The focus-ring is from 0.25m (less than one feet) and the short lens makes the depth very wide and deep even at moderate apperatures. Hence it's often refered to as a semi-fish-eye. The wide angle is a full 180 degree on the diagonal. This isnt a regular fisheye but it fills out the whole frame, giving a rectangular field of view. The oposite effect may be used in creative ways like curving the horizon (thus proving the earth is rounded). One funny thing is that you could use this semi-fish-eye-lens and still get straight lines to remain straight, just make sure the lines go from center and then perpendicular to the edge. Poster-works, postcards, interior photography! Dramatic skiing and sport-pictures! All this in one lens and no extra ad-ons needed! Closeups feasible due to the short closeup-distance, flower or miniature-photography. Lens has many more uses that you first may think nature, spectacular scenery when you want to catch small stuff near yet bring the whole landscape into the picture. I think its light-weight too, specially compared to my normal 55mm/1.2 asymetrical. It also includes a built in filter in 4 colours, sky (clear), red, yellow and orange. Both in its small size, clarity and speed.
