I fell in love. I just love the artistic possibilities it adds.

I originally thought it was just a nice "cheap" lens to add to my collection. Wow. i fell in love with him I just love the artistic possibilities it adds to my arsenal. :) Because it's a manual focus lens. It takes a little extra work to set up the lighting and such. I noticed that the center focus is actually pretty sharp. but is a bit frayed at the edges. but not too much. I have yet to try this lens on a tripod so it might just be my shaky hands. But I believe all fisheyes have this problem to some extent. As for the build. It has a certain weight; definitely doesn't feel cheap. The included lens cap is perfect. The tulip lens hood really hits the shots when positioned correctly. But those shots are usually cropped anyway, so it's not that big of a deal. I didn't even take the small lens case out of the box, it's definitely cheap and I don't usually use it anyway. Get this lens, I don't think you will be disappointed. I know it wasn't!
