Some cool looking shots, love the last one of the California smile/grill. That first one looks insane, Lamborghini Gallardo stretch
Last year I bought a Sigma fisheye lens for my Nikon. Obviously I'm a big fan of fisheye shots too, but I have learned, that the enthusiasm is not necessarily shared with everybody. A lot of folks simply don't care for the distored and unique perspective. Also it seems to get old fast when it is overdone: When I bought the lens I shot everything with it. Eventually I learned that certain subjects are perfect for it while others don't really work. So I'm using the lens now a bit like a filter: Perfect for a special situation, but not otherwise. Here some shots where I think the lens shows a perspective no other lens could match: Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
I just remembered that 25 years ago I bought a cheapo fish eye at one of NY's electronic shops while visiting. Here some pictures, which befit this month. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login

I have to agree with Tifosi12, although I've never actually used one. I'm sure it's very cool for a few shots, but it's just that, you will only really use it a few times before it gets old and before your entire portfolio is made up of fisheyes. I predict that if I got one, only one or two images in my portfolio would be fisheye and it just seems like a lot of money for such a niche lens, because they do seem to be in the higher price ranges.
Only ones I have on me..... Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
A circular Fisheye Yes....Novelty , But desirable under right circumstances.. A rectangular Fisheye should be part of every Photogs itinerary.. By cropping the pic on a rectangular format the results can be extremely interesting... Gonna try a little harder this weekend to capture something of Value! This shot has been cropped, which makes it appear as if that is the real Look! Not to mention that if I blow it up further , The focus /detail and resolution is mostly maintained because the pic was taken about 3-5 inches from subject... Image Unavailable, Please Login
Voila!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Same Pic..Mega cropped Only a 12 Mega pix camera too! It is no longer a fisheye photo! Try this with a fixed 50 mm lens from 25 feet back Hand Held Its all about Having Fun! Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Yeah, 17-40mm on a Canon 5D. The 17-40mm has a minimum focus distance of around .7 of a foot so you can get pretty close and with the full frame you can go rather wide, as you can see.
I was digging in my archive and found a few more with the cheapo fisheye. And I stand by what I said earlier: When that certain moment is right, then it is time for cialis, err a fish eye lens: Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
