This autofocus fisheye lens is designed for use with digital SLR cameras equipped
with APS-C size image sensors. The Nikon version produces a diagonal angle of
view of 180 Degree(154 Degree for Sigma, 167 Degree for Canon). The diagonal field
of view of this fisheye lens produces striking images with exaggerated perspective
and distortion. The minimum focusing distance of 13.5cm / 5.3inch, and maximum
magnification 1:3.3 allows subjects to be as close as 1.8cm/0.7inch from the lens
front element.
This close focusing capability allows close-up photography and also it is possible
to make use of large depth of field that covers wide range of subjects. The Integral
hood blocks out extraneous light and the Super Multi-Layer Coating minimizes flare
and ghosting, creating superior image quality. The HSM(Hyper Sonic Motor)ensures
fast and quiet autofocusing and allows full-time manual focus override by rotation
of the focus ring. This lens is supplied with a gelatin filter holder at the rear,
allowing the use of gelatin filters.
