8 mm
Sigma 8mm f3.5 EX DG circular fisheye. A very nice and sharp lens (at least in the center). And wideeee. If you have ideas on how you could use it and need it, I can only recommend it. Lately I’m thinking about a UWA linear lens. 10-22 to be exact. It’s currently really cheap, priced at 680 EUR -80 cashback (OK that was a limited special offer…), considering the normal 855 EUR price. But I’m not sure I’d use it that much, since I mostly shoot people. Anyway, here are a few 8mm fish samples that I took last year. Click here to see more.
As you can see FOV is really wide.

Woot?
The only thing I really hate about (U)WA lenses is, that it’s impossible to blur the background. This shoot (as well as previous) was taken at its minimal focusing distance (a few cm) at f3.5.

Maja: oba kavi vedno. Možgani na pašo pač:P.
ZiZa: mene pa sploh ne moti, tudi recimo močno vinjetiranje objektivov ne (pri fotkah ljudi, drugega itak skoraj ne fotkam).

Hehe, in tole si pofotkal v časi, ko se je še lahko kadilo v takšnih in drugačnih luknjah.
