Product details

Thanks to the extraordinary depiction of fish-eye perspectives, a whole new view of things is created. It is particularly well-suited for photography in small or tight spaces, but of course also for landscape photography. With an 8 mm focal length, you can capture exciting wide-angle images in complete sharpness. It requires only a minimum distance of about 13.5 cm. The lens features coated glass elements, allowing for excellent contrast and sharpness.

With this lens, you have entirely new possibilities for image composition. It is ideal for panoramic shots and creative images. Straight lines that are not in the center of the image are rendered curved. The distortion is strongly barrel-shaped. The high-quality optics and mechanics ensure optimal image results.

  • Fish-Eye 8mm suitable for the following cameras: Canon EOS 300D, 350D, 400D, 450D, 500D, 1000D, 10D, 20D, 30D, 40D, 50D, and analog Canon AF.
  • Ideal for shooting in confined spaces.
  • Unique perspective with very large depth of field.
  • Coated glass elements.
  • Usable with manual exposure settings.
  • Comes with a fixed lens hood.
  • High-quality construction.

Please note, this lens is not suitable for full-frame cameras.
