Best Canon EF - Fisheye lens - 15 mm - f/2.8 - Canon EF


I have always been a wide angle lens fan, so when I got a new Canon 5D body I decided to get this lens too.
I am very pleased with the brilliant optical performance, but don't think that it is a limited use lens because of the distortion inherent in a full frame fish-eye.
Using my image manipulation software (Paintshop Pro 8) I have corrected the distortion and obtained some stunning wide screen format landscapes which would have required 4 or 5 shots with a standard lens stitched together and the compromises that brings in matching brightness in the join areas.
After a couple of months use I have found many more uses for this lens than I had imagined, I take it with me everywhere.
The ceiling of a mediaeval cathedral shot with the lens pointing vertically up is a revelation in detail and design which is hard to appreciate with any other lens.
