Yes, true.  I was talking about SLR lenses.

35mm, full frame sensor digital, partial frame sensor digital, or medium format?  :twisted:



How about large format

Looking at the 2 links, the second is classed as a fish eye, not a wide angle lens. This means that on a standard lens, you will get something like a circular picture e.g. straight lines will 'bend' and become distorted. You get cool effects from these, close up big nosed facial shots for instance but for wide angle - no good sorry.

The discussion above that was going on for a 'standard lens'. in 35mm the standard photograpers lens, sometimes called the workhorse lens has been a 50mm lens either f1.8 or f1.4 although if you had mega bucks ymmou has a f1.0 :shock: , although Pentax on the old M series mount did a 40 + 45mm standard lens  :? (40mm being a 'pancake' lens)

With all screw in lenses there will be a drop in optical quality so use small apertures as the image quality on the edges will not be sharp. Also these are normally on size so you may need a step ring adaptor for use with your camera. P.S. The prices are OTT, try Jessops new or S/H or try Ebay :wink:

If I was you I'd get the real deal, they're not expensive anymore - what camera are you using :?:

sorry ive been away iam useing a fuji finepix 7000s and it seems there are not many attachments for it i was hopeing to use it at the billing bash but it confused me even more once the thread got started.
wot i was looking for is a lens to capture as much of the camp feild as possable but also be clear enoth to make out image and a tele lens good enoth for upto 1/4 of a mile for close up
x2 diffrent lens for diffrent jobs but i dont no how to tell witch one would give me the better picture out of the x2 size's from the scale used im new to cameras normaly use disposable ones and i thourt i would have a play for some diffrent effects the lens ent that dear but i dont wont to spend me cash unnesserly (irl spend it on me landy)
