What lens?
Love the pictures Jimmy , the Euro pictures are top self!
Just a quick question what fish eye lens are you using? I was thinking of either the DX Fisheye 10.5mm F/2.8G or the Sigma 15mm F2.8 EX DG DIAGONAL Fisheye. |
I am using the 10.5mm DX fisheye. I chose it because it seems to be just about the best fisheye around. Colours are great, focuses close, its small and light. Not cheap though, but a proper fisheye never is. :)
|
Thanks you for the response! Yeah its not cheap and really really not so cheap in Europe.
|
yea, my lens came from Hong Kong if I'm honest. I paid import duty but it was still a lot cheaper than over here.

haha, I will bear that in mind! :) I have never in my entire life been in a camera shop that sold the kind of cameras and lenses that I have. They are a bit too specialized for jessops I think.

i have a few on cd nothing like your quality but u can look through them some i know you may wana delete lol:D vicky on the other hand may want them yeh goo vicky |
The Sigmas not bad actually, the old one was appauling but the new ex is ok. If you have a film cam isnt the Sigma your only choice cause wont the DX only work on the digi bodies?!?!
Neither though, i dont think, are as good as the canon fisheye, only lens i've seen thats beaten that has been on a blad or RZ.. |
I got the nikon DX since its full frame on the nikon DX body. The canon isnt so you dont get quite as mad an angle ? (though on my 1.3 body im sure its not too bad) but also I used the Nikon 10.5 before and liked how close it could focus (couple of inches) which I dont think the canon can do.
I wouldnt mind having a look at your Canon fishy craig. The guys I met in austria, now they had some lenses. All L series things and absolutely loads of them. |
yeah you can have a look next time i see you about Jim...
L series lenses are great, i hired a 70-200 to do a fashion show and it was superb. Want one now :-D |
Again thanks for the help!! I decided to go with your recommendation and get the Nikon. I have a thing for instant gratification and have looked everywhere for the lens but no one had one in stock. I almost had to order it on line but I found a small camera shop that I forgot existed and they had one left…. I ended up shelling out about 740 Euros for it.
Hope to give it a proper test run later tonight! |
