Canon EF 8-15mm f/4L USM Fisheye review by bandwprinter

A VERY UNIQUE lens indeed! While a fisheye isn't for everyone, I find that if you're in a rut photographically, put this baby on your camera! If that doesn't get you going, I don't know what will.
Pros:
  • Great lens with more functionality than the previous 15mm
Cons:
  • Price

Canon EF 8-15mm f4L Fisheye USM

The Canon EF 8-15mm Fisheye zoom is a unique lens and one for which anticipation has been steadily building since its original announcement back in August 2010. Now one year on, the lens has finally hit the stores and I've had a chance to see what all the fuss is about in my review.
Pros:
  • 180 degree diagonal fisheye for all Canon DSLRs
  • 180 degree circular fisheye for full-frame DSLRs
  • Tough build with weatherproofing
  • Optically sharp across the entire imaging circle
Cons:
  • Vulnerable-looking front element
  • Lens cap easily comes loose
  • Chromatic aberrations in areas of high contrast
  • Full circular fisheye only available to full-frame
