Review on πŸ“· MEKE MK-3.5mm f2.8 Ultra Wide Circular Fisheye Lens for Olympus & Panasonic Lumix MFT Micro Four Thirds Mount Mirrorless Cameras by Cory Spence

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Too wide for a pocket computer.

Ironically, the GH5's fisheye (MFT) is too wide to be practical in most situations. As you can see in the photo, when shooting handheld you can see the grip of the camera and your fingers in the frame. I've also found that to get a cool fisheye portrait, your subject needs to be close to the glass. If you place the camera on the gimbal at the right angle, you can avoid bumping your feet, but otherwise you will have a hard time staying outside the frame. Tip: Anamorphic mode creates a cool effect of a full circle in the frame.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • weak
