...for sale US$100 + actual cost of shipping.
I bought this lens about 3 months ago, used it twice, haven't touched it since I got my 8mm fisheye. Like new.

The 16mm fisheyes are full-frame. Luckily I'm not tempted on this one, I already have the Canon 15mm :-)
I would not be without a full-frame fisheye in my arsenal, however. I LOVE my 15mm fish, and use it regularly. Can't wait to use it on a full-frame cam!! ;-)

kirbic I know I ask you a million questions about this stuff, but is there much difference in FOV between the 16mm fisheye and the 15mm fisheye canon/sigma. I know it's significantly wider than the 17mm aspherical I have currently, but I guess I want to know what the difference is between the 15 and 16. BTW the FOV calculator you sent me was very nice, and i forwarded it to some people but I don't have excel so I couldn't use it myself. thanks.

From the calculator it looks like 89° for the 15mm, and 84° for the 16mm (that's horizontal FoV on a 1.6-crop cam). Depending on whether each lens is actually exactly the advertised focal length, and how they measure the FoV, YMMV. They are in effect so close to the same, I'd bet you would not know the difference. BTW, that's about the same horizontal FoV as an 11 or 12mmm rectilinear lens...

I actually checked via the color picker in photoshop so as to not bring the monitor much into the equation :-X
PS: that's looking really nice! Now where can I get money from *panicing*
PPS: i'm mostly teasing ya anyways :-P... I understand you don't like my choice of duotone.

If that lens is an M42 with an EOS adapter (kinda looks that way in the photo) you can consider it sold. I can paypal you the mula. If its a straight up EOS mount, then I'll have to pass.
email me at mcmurma@hotmail.com if you want to do the deal.

Someone from montreal has already asked me to keep the lens for them. So if it does not work out you are next on the list.
ps: and it is an M42 mount with an EOS adapter

I would guess about US$20 including insurance. |
