The 0.43 opteka fisheye. I don't recomend it its horrible. If I were you I would save up for a 0.3 opteka fisheye they are we better. I've only used the lense a few times because I hate it so much. When you film with it,it looks like its gonna fall...

Pancake lenses cannot be perfect - the small size simply implies some compromises. However, the Samsung NX 20mm f/2.8 does a pretty good job actually. At f/2.8 you have to live with some corner softness and quite high vignetting. However, the center...

keep this on my 24-70 at all times as it protects from knocks and scratches as well as increasing contrast and preventing flare...expensive but essential in my view

Very good for the money - AF confirm works well with Canon 600D and 1000D. You have to use Manual mode only (not Av) I've found but that's not a problem. Definitely worth spending an extra £2 to get an adapter with the chip. Recommended purchase.

There's not much more to say that the test results don't already show: very good performance, even when used wide open, and excellent performance when stopped down just a little.

A really good lens for the money. I use it on an F5. Produces sharp images even wide open. certainly usable for most TV productions.

Really pleased with this product. The fish eye lens has quite a large amount of black round the frame but I use edit software anyway so I crop it. Got some really good pics in the Lake District. Railway lines through a fisheye are always arty farty....

This was a good price and just what I was after. I haven't used it too much just yet but I don't anticipate any problems.

An older sony TRV series camcorder I had was equipped with a wide angle lens that made you seasick when watching the footage. Since then, I've been weary of going with these types of lenses. However, after reading lots of comments on various forums,...

Bought this lens brand new when it first came out, using it on a Nikon F5, then the original D1. Hadn't used it much in several years, but pulled it out recently upon finally getting a FF sensor camera (D4)--still works like a champ, and built like a...

This mouthful of a lens is Sigma's offering in the popular long telephoto range that incorporates a system for overcoming camera shake, this one being called OS (Optical Stabilisation) We take a look at how it performs against some venerable opposition.

The lens is very fast. If you want a shallow depth of field this is the best lens you can find. I read a mixed bag of reviews here and the people seem to either love it or hate it. The ones that hate it all complain that it is soft - clearly they don't...

The Tamron 150-500mm F5-6.7 Di III VC VXD lens has the zoom power you'll want for sports and wildlife imaging, as well as a sturdy build to handle location work.

The Nikon Nikkor Z 50mm F1.2 S gathers more light than most lenses, netting shots with exceptionally shallow depth of field.

Bottom Line: The Fujifilm Fujinon XF 8-16mm F2.8 R LM WR lens will broaden your perspective, capturing ultra-wide scenes that haven't been possible for X system photographers to this point.

This is for Canon bodies. Wasn't too clear when I purchased it. Seems to be French stock judging by the booklet it came with. Not too important as instructions not really required for a lens. I've had limited time with it but seems a cracking lens. The...

Zeiss and Sony were those companies which started a wave of new 1.4/50 mm class lenses by presenting the Carl Zeiss Planar T* 50 mm f/1.4 ZA SSM in February 2013. Then the launches followed one another and we saw respectively: the Zeiss Otus 1.4/55,...

Of the numerous incarnations of Tamron's famous superzoom concept that we've seen over the last couple of decades, the latest 16-300mm F3.5-6.3 Di II VC PZD Macro looks like one of the bigger steps forward. It offers a lot more than the incremental...

At face value, this 12mm fisheye lens from Samyang would be good value if it was only half-decent, due to the low price and excellent build quality. The fact it is capable of producing images with outstanding sharpness and offers a unique stereographic...

Focus noise is also minimised by reducing the weight of the focus element group and driving with a responsive double linear motor. As an extra refinement, focusing mode can be switched effortlessly from auto to manual simply by sliding the focus ring,...
