Terrible fisheye lens for photography

This lens produces distorted and blurry images that are unusable. The only positive thing about this lens is its low price. However, with electronics, you often get what you pay for, and in this case, the quality is not worth the savings. Avoid this lens if you want professional-looking fisheye photographs.

Pros
  • Exceptional image quality with accurate color rendition and contrast.
Cons
  • Distortion that can be too extreme for some photographic applications.

About as blurry as a plastic iPhone fisheye adapter

I liked the Rokinon Micro Four Thirds Fisheye. It was one of my favorite lenses. But this lens is not like that at all. The detection angle is much smaller. The picture is much less sharp. CA is much more extreme. Sure, it's fifty bucks cheaper than the MFT lens, but it's ten times less good. Very, very disappointing. I had to return it.

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

good portable size - camera and photo

lens arrived 12/16/14 from Revain Direct Shipping. I paired it with Oly OM-D EM5. Pros: - compact, good portable size, feels solid - metal (SS) bayonet mount - aluminum body. Looks anodized. Has a rubber coating. Non-slip feel. The center seems sharp. Modified Tessar design? - a good soft case included - the cost of $106 excl. Cons: - sandy feel with the focus ring. - The focus ring is textured (ribbed) but difficult to take as it has a small notch on the body. Bad ergonomics. - The coating…
