About this product

Product Information

This circular fisheye lens produces circular images with an angle of view of 180° when attached to a full-frame digital SLR or 35mm film SLR camera. It has a fast maximum aperture of F3.5 and a minimum focusing distance of 13.5cm (5.3"). Sigma's super multi-layer coating and Special Low Dispersion (SLD) glass provide excellent image quality for digital and film SLR cameras. The special fisheye design allows maximum creative expression.This circular fisheye lens produces circular images with an angle of view of 180°and also incorporates an auto focus system to achieve accurate focusing that might be difficult through the camera's viewfinder due to the extremely large depth of field. This lens is perfectly suited for low light conditions indoors or at dusk.This circular fisheye lens has a minimum focusing distance of 13.5cm (5.3") and a maximum magnification of 1: 4.6 making it particularly useful for close-up photography. Special Low Dispersion (SLD) glass offers effective compensation of color aberration. Sigma's super multi-layer lens coating reduces flare and ghosting, a common problem with digital cameras and also creates an optimum color balance.Due to the quantifiable angle/area relationship it produces, this lens can be used for scientific applications such as solid angle measurements of cloud distribution over the sky, or vegetation distribution of the rain forest canopy.

  • Nikon fit Sigma 8mm EX DG fisheye lens

    This is a specialist prime lens with a tremendous depth of field useful for tight spaces, artwork and special effects. To get the maximum benefit out of it's fixed 8mm prime nature, you need to compensate by using the various sensor crop modes available in modern SLRs today. I use the FX D810 (37MP and the DX D7200 (24MP) to ensure pin sharp images, both of which allow you to 'crop' the image sensor with no loss of light penalty. I use the D810 in FX (36 x 24mm mode) to obtain a circular image and in DX (24 x 16mm mode) to obtain an ovoid image. With the D7200, I use the DX (24 x 16mm mode) to obtain the same ovoid image and also the 1.3x crop mode (18 x 12mm) to obtain a wider, full frame ovoid image. This allows a whole variety of pin sharp images to be achieved restoring flexibility which is what creative photography is all about. Highly recommended and it comes with a handy padded zip pouch as well.
