A great price. Corners are not as sharp, however you would need to spend much more to get a super sharp image. It does a decent job for 360 light maps.

I've been wanting a fisheye lens for so long I finally found the one! It is affordable, small enough to fit everywhere and the image quality of the photos are amazing! I use it mostly to take long exposure photos at night, nightclubs and parties at night (concerts and stuff), and some street photography as well. 100% recommend this lens to anybody looking to give their photos a different yet wonderful perspective!

Great fish eye lens. You do have to practice figuring out the focus settings, at first.

I love this lens, very fun to play with. A fisheye photo is much more interesting. You can take close ups or landscapes and they turn out great!!!!! I put off getting a fisheye lens for years and now wish I had done it sooner.

This lens brings nice depth, combined with the Sony A7S, but the pictures are slightly noisy in close deatail as compared to the use of other lenses. Not sure if this is an issue with the lens or only in combination with this camera. Overall, I enjoy the shots I get for videos, and would recommend it for anyone looking a good panorama lens.
