Re: Nice lens for sale
Posted: Tue Apr 24, 2012 11:37 pmLOL - yes well a circular fisheye will do that for you. You could PP them to try and make them rectilinear but you'll get massive distortion and quality loss from the stretching.surenj wrote:Terrible terrible vignetting from the look of it...
On my Coolpix you could tell it you wanted a rectilinear image and it would essentially automatically zoom to the point where you end up with a full frame.

Probably 39mm.
Seriously.
Many Nikon lenses include an internal 39mm filter within the body's light path as a part of the optical path for the glass. There's a removable holder into which the filter is mounted. You extract the holder and place a replacement filter into the light path, and you always ensure that there's a filter of some sort within the light path.

And I detect some considerable geometric distortion.

Fascinating piece of gear… Here's a rear view:
It also shows the filter wheel with five built-in filters.
