Something fisheye: showing off my new kickass lens

September 3, 2008

I’ve wanted one for years, and I finally picked it up over the long weekend. It’s small, heavy, and helps my camera and I take photos I’ve always wanted to take. Canon does not make a D-SLR fisheye lens (their 15mm is not a digital lens), and so I had to turn to after market lens maker Tokina (they make the same model for Nikon). Their fisheye is a 10-17mm lens with an eye-ball of a lens that practically extends beyond it’s outer casing.

Enough with the specs.
Below is a sampling of the first batch of photos taken with the new lens. What do you think?

I’ll be taking some more photos soon and posting them into my Flickr stream. Let me know if you have any questions on the camera or the lens.

    Yep, one (double) question: How much and where did you buy it?
