Samyang 8mm f/3.5 Aspherical IF MC Fisheye

a modern manual fisheye lens

in my use from 12/2011 to current date

estimated retail price 290 EUR

this is the right fisheye lens for many: better than Peleng 8mm f/3.5 Fisheye, cheaper than Sigma 10mm f/2.8 EX DC HSM Fisheye

offers the full fisheye fun

from f/5.6 provides nice image quality beating the classic Peleng

has a thing called stereographic projection that everybody wants but no other fisheye lens on the market offers

usable on a 1.3x crop body with a little cropping

images shot full open lack some sharpness and contrast, so best to use it starting from f/5.6

targeted to 1.6x crop bodies
