What's a good fish eye lens?

What is the difference bewteen a 15mm Fish eye lens and a 55mm Fish eye lens?

  • Im looking for a Fish Eye lens from Canada, and I found one off of Henry's, http://www.henrys.ca/291-CANON-EF-15MM-2-8-AF-FISHEYE.aspx and one from eShopic.com http://www.amazon.ca/Angle-Fish-Eye-Telephoto-Filters-Macro/dp/B003NTH0IA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1288695507&sr=8-1 I would like to know the difference between the two and what one would be a better choice. Thank you!

  • Answer:

    One is a real lens and the other is a screw on filter. The Canon is obviously the better choice. Screw on filters are horrible but cheap. They can never replace a real lens.

I would consider 55mm Wide Angle fish eye Lens For Sony DSLR A700 A900 Technical Details Fits any lens with 55mm filter threads - Most Sony lenses are 55mm. This lens simply screws onto the filter threads of your current lens to create 0.45x wide angle. This excellent lens can be separated in two pieces (unscrewed): macro part and wide angle part. So you can use it both ways: like macro lens (without wide angle part) and like wide angle with macro together! This is a very unique feature of this lens for its price. Lens bag, lens, and cap included! High Speed Auto-Focus / Infrared Compatible (IR). http://www.amazon.com/55mm-Wide-Angle-fish-Lens/dp/B003M59PCY/?tag=srtghl-20
