Specifications(f=8mm F3.5 UMC FISH-EYE CS Ⅱ) Model NameĨmm F3.5 UMC FISH-EYE CS Ⅱ (DIAGONAL FISH-EYE)ġ0 ELEMENTS IN 7 GROUPS (1 ASPHERICAL LENS).※ Size and design may vary depending on the mount of a lens Samyang 8mm 1:3.5 Aspherical IF MC Fish-eye CSII DH is available in Canon EF, Nikon F, Pentax K, Sony A, Canon M, Fujifilm X, Samsung NX, Sony E, MFT mount versions. A specialist lens, affordable to every photographer. The Samyang 8mm fisheye lens offers some of the best optics in a lens for its class, and exceptional value for money. Groups such as skateboarders turn to this Samyang fisheye CS II for skate videos and photography to document their exciting moments. The Samyang 8mm Fisheye CS II features an aspherical hybrid lens and the latest anti-reflective multi-coating (MC) to minimize flare and ghosting.įisheye lenses are also popular for special effects use where distortion and field curvature, exaggerated perspective, or extreme depth of field are desired. The optical construction of the lens is 10 elements placed in 7 optical groups. On full-frame cameras, Samyang 8mm Fisheye gives a wide field of view, making it ideal for panoramas and 3D virtual tours. Samyang 8mm F3.5 Fish eye CS II is built for APS-C, but it can also be used on full-frame cameras with the lens hood detached. The Samyang 8mm F3.5 AS MC Fisheye CSII DH Lens features a detachable lens hood (DH), otherwise is the same (optically and mechanically) as the non detachable hood version. If you’re using a digital camera that sports an APS-C sized sensor then you need a fisheye lens with a focal range of 4 or 5 mm.180-degree view turns the world around for 180 degrees of fun! If you’re in the market for a circular and you’re shooting with a full frame camera, you’re looking at a focal range of 8–10mm. Circulars have a much shorter focal length than the diagonals. It’s for this reason that diagonals are often called “full frame fisheye lenses.”Ī circular fisheye, on the other hand, creates a circular image centered within your camera’s frame. These lenses map a 180 degree angle of view “diagonally” across your frame’s sensor so that the image area is filled in with pixels. The diagonal type of fisheye is the most common type and the most preferred. There are two distinct kinds of fisheye lenses: diagonals and circulars. Buying the Right Type of Fisheye LensĪnother factor that is sometimes overlooked is the type of fisheye lens. If you’re shooting with a camera that has the APS-C sized sensor, then you need something in the 8 to 11 mm range. Here’s a general guideline: If you’re shooting with a full frame camera like the Canon 5D Mark II or Nikon D700, you need a lens with a focal length of between 15 or 16mm. To achieve the “fisheye effect” you would need a lens with a focal length of between 8 or 10mm. What you end up with instead is a wide angle lens with an effective focal length of 24mm (15mm X 1.6 = 24mm). For instance, if you bought a Canon 15mm full frame diagonal for your Canon 7D because you wanted to create some cool fisheye images, you would be very disappointed with this Canon fisheye. The vast majority of DSLR owners shoot with the APS-C sized sensors with a crop factor of 1.5x –1.6x times. Do you want a fisheye lens, or are you really looking for an ultra wide angle? Right Lens for the Right Sensor SizeĪnother error many people make is buying a fisheye that was not designed for their camera’s sensor size. As a result, the angle of view is reduced considerably but with an image that is considerably less distorted.Ī wide angle lens will always have an angle of view that is less than that of fisheye lens of the same focal length. Because of this, fisheye lenses have an extreme 180 degree angle of view and an image characterized by “barrel distortion.” A regular wide angle lens is corrected for distortion by adding corrective lens elements. Unlike a wide angle lens, a fisheye is not corrected for distortion. Photo captured by Jeremy Difference Between Fisheye and Wide Angle Lens
