Bang for the Buck

Great lens for use on the APS-C sensor Nikon. After much research I decided to test out the functionality and usability of wide angle lenses and my shooting style I chose this one instead of the much costlier Nikon lens. For the price you cant beat it. Granted you have to manually set apeture and focus, but thats not that big a deal...good practice at the least. Has done great so far and met all of my expectations.

save your money

alright, i love this cause I'm another poor college student who wanted to take fishy shots, and it goes down to 7mm and cause its orange. for that purpose its great awesome and fun, i was between this and the cheaper pro optic but i can't tell you whats better. anyways the shots are great and experimental and it fits good with my nikon, but i really wish it was automatic though manuals not bad in comparison so if u can afford a nikon one, go for that if ur serious

Excellent value for money

Very good performance with the low price of this objective. Although you have to use manual settings (no Auto) is very easy to use. With a good aperture setting ring and an even better for focusing. Perfect for taking panoramic photos or pictures of landscapes, both urban and nature.

great fisheye for nikom

great fisheye manual focus is only drawback if you always use auto but for about $300 less than other auto fisheye lenses this gets every thing I need

About Vivitar 7mm F/3.5

The Vivitar 7mm F/3.5 Fish Eye Lens will give you a totally different perspective compared to anything else available. It also features one of the widest fields of view compared to similar fish eye lenses. The hybrid spherical lenses produce sharply defined images. The fixed petal hood and multi-layer coating reduce flare and ghosting.

The minimum focus distance of 1' allows for extreme close up shots and the F/3.5 aperture gives you a large depth of field. The 180 degree angle of view provides you with excellent versatility for shooting in cramped spaces or for wide, sweeping landscapes. This lens allows you to create amazing image expressions, such as exaggerated perspective and distortion.

The Vivitar 7mm is built tough, solid and precise. The large, rubber-clad manual focus ring is smooth enough to glide with one fingertip. The long turning radius is fantastic for precision focusing. If you are looking to expand your creativity, then the Vivitar 7mm F3.5 Fish Eye is the perfect tool.
