Looking to buy a fisheye and came across this lens...i use a canon 7d and i was wondering if anyone has used this lens with a 7d or if anyone can give me any feedback on the lens...my other option is to just buy the canon 15mm fisheye

Embed probably didnt work but the majority of this is shot on that lens and a 7D
I really like the lens

Can never figure that out haha

But its a sick fisheye. I like how wide it is for follows because even when hand held it doesnt look super shaky

*Tokina 10-17, Vancouver loves his. I'd stay away from 15mm fisheyes on a crop body, 15mm would be 24mm, not so fishy. I've heard great things about the sigma fisheyes in genearl, I know a lot of pro's use the 15mm sigma over the Canon (Dan Carr...), so I'm guessing the 10mm would be just as good. The 6/8mm multi-brand is good if your on a budget, but expect major CA/aberations/soft-focus/other-junk, you get what you pay for basically.


Then theres always this, lol, I wish.

Used for most of the flashbacks in this film. It's a great lens.
