Shop Best Price Nikon Fisheye Lens
Nikon 10.5mm f/2.8G ED AF DX Nikon Fisheye Lens is one of the finest fisheye lenses released by the company.
Priced at around 600 American Dollars, this lens has more features than a professional photographer need to satisfy his photography requirements. This is after some time that Nikon is launching a full frame fish eye lens that also with the DX feature. One of the greatest benefits from this lens is that it can be used with a small scale Nikon camera as well. Compared to the previous DX models of lenses, this one has many advanced features as well.
For instance, the special effects can be created very well with this lens because you can get close to the subject very easily. However, make sure that you are not putting yourself in danger by moving too close. With a Nikon fisheye lens, the common automobile rule, “objects in the mirror are closer than they appear” is really true and it’s your call to avoid such issues. You can more than often find people who failed to recognize the distance between their object and the lens thus put themselves in danger.
The lenses come with a protective angle cap which will protect your lens even if you are using them. This is because the angle cap will not allow objects to directly make a scratch on your precious photography tool. The weight is only 300 grams making it one of the lightest wide angle lenses around. The front cap is the usual plastic slip on cap and the product can be used with various Digital SLR camera models such as D90, D70, D60 and D50. The price is justified with the highest quality that they can offer and a good uv converter can protect its glass as well.
Originally made as a digital camera lens, this lens is not a great choice with film cameras because it can create dark circles around the frame. This definitely is not a good idea for film users and the angle this lens can cover is lesser on a film camera. It is very hard to get the same 180 degree angle that you anticipate. With the right flash setup, probably the SB600 flashes from Nikon, you can get very good results with flash mode too. With the right flash popping for you, it is easy to cover a 180 degree angle beautifully.
The autofocus feature of this lens work like a charm and produce the best possible results. There is no doubt that you need to make use of the autofocus feature because this will help you to benefit the maximum out of this product. The screw type autofocus will not work on a D40 because of the differences in technology between both. D40 has built in motor while this lens comes with a motor in it, a conflicting feature that will not get along well. Apart from this simple issue, this lens is the real deal for most of us and can produce the best results.
