Anyone want a 6mm fisheye, nikon mount, 220 degree field of vision (yes, that means it can see behind the lens), and a built-in tripod mount (since the lens is probably bigger than your head)?
Going for a bargain price of only $34k on ebay!

* Disclaimer - this isn't my lens, I'm not affiliated with the seller in any way, I just think it's amazingly cool yet ridiculously pricy ;)

Holy Jesus.
I guess you don't screw the lens into the camera - you screw the camera into the lens.
I'd hate to try to keep that thing clean.
And where are the example images?! |

My thoughts exactly. How do you expect to sell a 34K lens with no sample pics? |

Found a sample elsewhere, looks damn impressive...

... but not good enough to justify the pricetag :)

| $34,020.00 and he can't take off the $150.00 postal fee. Well, that was my deciding factor in not buying it. |

| What a bargain. This lens used to be over 100K when it first came out. |

But surely renting it for an easy grab at a DPC ribbon is worth it! :P |

That sample isn't $35,000 impressive.
Kind of a limited application for the same amount as a good Lexus, no?

Good Lexus? I didn't realize there were any good overpriced Toyota products. :D |

No kidding. To my eye the horizon is distorted and not straight. I don't know if anybody else is seeing that...

Yes, but does this lens have good bokeh?
