Well, not exactly my first shot but pretty close :)

No correction to this image at all. Shot from my very boring balcony.

And defished in LR

It shows some pretty severe distortion, isn't 7.5mm like a normal lens on micro-4/3? :rotfl2:

Cheers

Yep, the old fisheye distortion :bowdown:

A 25mm lens on a Micro 4/3rds would be equivalent to the 50mm on a full frame camera - I think :roll:

This lens would make for a fantastic landscape lens as the distortion at a distance is minimal.

Yes, just kidding of course :)

I've take quite a few landscape shots with the Nikon 10.5mm fish-eye. It works great, as long as one keeps the horizon in the middle. Composition can be fixed later by cropping.

Cheers
