Unique shots
Treat yourself to a whole new view of things. You have to experience this angle of view. At 180°, the captured field of view is even larger than the photographer's field of vision. Thanks to the unusual perspective, there are no limits to creativity. Whether in panorama or landscape photography, architecture or even interiors: brilliant shots can be achieved with the Samyang Fisheye. Due to the extremely large depth of field and the gigantic perspective, all possibilities are open to the photographer who likes to experiment.
New image composition possibilities
With the Samyang fisheye lens, photographers have a wide range of creative possibilities, especially with spherical panoramas. Straight lines that are not in the centre of the image are shown curved and the distortion is strongly barrel-shaped. This special type of lens has a particularly short focal length for its image format size, which means that the image is depicted with curved shapes. Thus, photographs taken with the fisheye acquire their typical, spherically distorted perspective.
High-quality workmanship
The fisheye has a focal length of only 7.5 mm. Even at a minimum distance of 9 cm, exciting wide-angle images can be captured in brilliant sharpness. Design-wise, you can achieve a lot: the exaggeratedly large foreground and the receding perspective create an interesting image. The high speed of 1:3.5 allows for excellent shots even in less favourable light conditions. The lens hood is permanently installed and prevents incident stray light and lens reflections. The glass lenses of the lens are UMC-coated for excellent contrast and sharpness as well as colour balance. The extra high quality optics of the lens ensure optimal image results. Thanks to the metal bayonet, the lens is robust, wear is low and a long service life is guaranteed.
Using an APS-C lens on a camera with a full-frame sensor
Lenses designed for cameras with an APS-C sensor can sometimes be used (mainly by using an adapter) on cameras with a full-frame sensor. However, due to the much smaller image circle of APS-C lenses, the edges will be black. The usable area of the image photographed with a full-frame camera therefore corresponds to that of a camera with an APS-C sensor. The images must therefore be cropped in post-processing. Using APS-C lenses on full-frame cameras is therefore possible, but not recommended.
