Description
First trip and play with my 8mm Fisheye lensHad a real mixed bag of results this day,there`s no Auto Focus and the Manual I found is quite subtle and you don`t need to be far off to get a non-crisp shot,but It`ll be a permanent feature in my cam bag and I`ll really enjoy playing with it on my City trips.
Dedicated to my special girl who treated me to this toy for Xmas
Thank you for checking this one out

Very cool! Love to see what this lens would do with that ceiling in that museum (can't remember what one it was
) I'm looking forward to great things from you and this lens

Quite pricey,I`m fairly sure that`s the lens I took this shot with too [link]
Love the fact that it`s Auto-Focus but if it is the same,you will get darkening around the all 4 corners of the image,I determinately didn`t want that cos you`ll lose out by cropping if you don`t want it

That's actually a less painful price than I had in mind, but it's a very sweet move from your girl nonetheless! There is a (small) part of me that wants a fisheye lens, but the larger part of me thinks the results are too one sided. It still would be very cool to play with it, but there are a few other lenses I need before going for that. Like a good portrait lens for instance...

JonnyGoodboy In reply to Chopen [2010-01-20 16:45:47 +0000 UTC]
It`s about as cheap as you can get one I think Cho
If you want the portrait lens,go for the F 1.8,probably the best value lens you can get.
BTW,what do you mean one-sided?

Chopen In reply to JonnyGoodboy [2010-01-20 17:56:38 +0000 UTC]
Yeah that's the one I had in mind. And it sounds negative, but I don't mean it that way, but I think fish eye shots look too much alike

loving the alignment to the right margin and how the lines from the top and bottom of the windows fall together toward the center of the right margin... really cool
you could of moved the freakin' chairs a bit ... they ruin the lines...
Have fun with the new toy kiddo
