Samyang 7.5mm

With everyone getting new bodies, I think that separate section for you to proudly display your first image from your new acquisition is in order.

This applies to brand new bodies, as well as bodies that are simply newly acquired by you.

Samyang 7.5mm

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
