Nikon 10.5mm Fisheye

fisheyes would be fun to play around with, but they are kinda costly for how much i'd actually use it.

i almost jumped on the group buy which POTN did for the 8mm Peleng lens, but didn't.

I hang out on a few of the bigger photo sites, found the Nikon 10.5, mint, from one of the Nikon to Canon types...for $325. :happydance: Couldn't turn that down. Its by far the funnest lens I have ever shot with.

Fisheyes are fun, but it's one of the last things you (Narlus) should spend money on. It has a time and a place, but is way overused, kinda like selective color, IMHO.

Spank, nice job making pugs look even goofier.

I had a fish-eye for my old pre-dig EOS system. Used it a few times, got a couple cool photos, but hardly justified the expense or the carrying around of it, etc.

You gotta be a believer and have a very good eye, methinks.

I use the 10.5mm lens on my D2X all the time. I had a 16mm full-frame for my Pentax SLR, so I had to get the Nikon as soon as it was available.
