This circular fisheye lens from Lensbaby is available to fit Canon, Nikon, Pentax, Sony, Samsung and Micro Four Thirds cameras. It offers an extremely wide field of view of 185 degrees, with the barrel distortion effect you'd normally expect from a fisheye lens.
Those looking for a budget circular fisheye could do a lot worse than this lens. It offers excellent sharpness in the centre of the image circle for a decent price. The build quality and handling do leave some room for improvement, but this may be easy to look by, especially considering the image...
The images are great, and I'm enjoying using this lens. But 3 things that ding it: 1. On a Fuji mount, the lens has an extra extension to accommodate for the shorter optical path of the mirrorless camera design, so it's awkwardly larger in length. 2.
The lens is not bad for the price, but it' not a full frame lens. Other that that it is still usable with my full frame camera. I had to set my Sony a7r to crop C. The imaging and sharpness are good. I am not sorry that I bought this lens because this completes my lenses.
WONDERFUL lens! The polished interior adds a great 'frame' to most shots and if you don't like it, it can be easily masked in post. The FOV is so great that you really don't have to use the viewfinder.
A totally manual lens including f-stop and exposure. Does exactly what it is designed to do and is fairly sharp in the center. Feels cheaply made, but glass is clear.
Good bargain for a novelty lems. The build is substantial, but the images are a little soft which is not a huge problem on a circular image.
