Nikon AF-S FISHEYE NIKKOR 10.5mm f/2.8G IF ED

Product Information

Along with having practical uses, many photographers adopted the fisheye because of the distorted, unique images it captured. They used it to capture intriguing photographs of numerous subjects, ranging from portraits to still life.

Along with creating surreal images and capturing stunning landscapes, some other advantages of this model include: Clear Images The Rokinon FE8M-N 8mm boasts truly exceptional image quality. The unit distorts lines in such a way that makes the captured scene look very intriguing and interesting. Since it distorts the plane of the image completely, it enables photographers to be incredibly creative. In fact, the best results are achieved in manual mode when images are underexposed a bit. Not to brag, but I designed the Ai AF Fisheye-Nikkor 16mm f/2.8D when I was just 28 years old. At that time, I became interested in the depth of fisheye lenses, and was put in charge of development of the lens with the switch to AF. Cameras – LCD screen is heavily worn either by de-lamination or has scratches to it. Rubber grips are starting to come away from the body.

Vignetting is present in the corners of the frame, resulting in a tunnel vision effect that makes the scene appear to be confined inside a round circle. Fisheye lenses are of two types – circular fisheyes and full-field diagonal fisheyes. Diagonal fisheyes create an image circle that covers the image sensor completely, resulting in an image that has a full-sized, regular, rectangular shape. Here are some shots I’ve taken with this lens, and you can find my detailed hands-on review here. I took this photo with a Nikon AF-S 8-15mm f/3.5-4.5E ED fisheye zoom lens on a Nikon D850 @ 15 mm and ƒ / 4.5. I took this photo with a Nikon AF-S 8-15mm f/3.5-4.5E ED fisheye zoom lens on a Nikon D850 @ 8 mm and ƒ / 5.6. I took this photo with a Nikon AF-S 8-15mm f/3.5-4.5E ED fisheye zoom lens on a Nikon D850 @ 15 mm and ƒ / 4.5. I took this photo with a Nikon AF-S 8-15mm f/3.5-4.5E ED fisheye zoom lens on a Nikon D850 @ 15 mm and ƒ / 5.6. Lens design also had to assure that the image resolution performance would not be degraded even if the aspherical surface was imperfect. Aspherical lens mass production technology, while productivity was much lower than it is today, still existed.

Resolution at the edges of the frame is increased. A satisfactory level of sharpness is achieved throughout nearly the entire frame. This range of aperture settings seems best for regular use. f/16 to f/22 Almost all buyers were impressed with the image quality and zoom capabilities offered by Nikon. Users loved the brilliant hood design and the nano-coating. They also liked the compact and lightweight design and stated that it was extremely fun to use. While they praised the sharpness and fast auto-focus, they found the unit to be a bit expensive. Some customers also reported receiving defective models. It should be noted that this was the world's first fisheye lens for which the close-range correction system ("floating element" design) was adopted. We'll go into the reasons the close-range correction system had not been considered with previous fisheye lenses later. The result, however, was a consistently high level of sharpness in images captured at shooting distances of infinity to extremely close up. With the first hypothesis, where the subject is a dome-shaped object plane, a solution in terms of aberration is easily deduced with a normal focusing system. However, does this really make for a fisheye lens with good rendering? As a photographic lens, shouldn't it be based on a flat object? No matter how much I considered this question at the time, I could not reach a clear decision about which was correct. I asked my boss, Mr. Aono, to investigate with trial production of both types. This was the beginning of development of a fisheye lens with which performance at close distances was emphasized more than with any previous lens.A model with excellent optical quality is essential in panoramic photography. Since you’re going to be working with a closed diaphragm to achieve maximum depth of field, you’ll experience diffraction effects and a slight loss in sharpness. Hence, make sure that the model you choose has excellent center sharpness. Pros and Cons of Fisheye Lenses Since then, there have been 13 general product releases in this line: the 8mm f/8 sold as a interchangeable lens for the Nikon F in 1962; the Fisheye-Nikkor 7.5mm f/5.6 with improved brightness, sold in 1966; the R-UW AF 13mm f/2.8 for the NIKONOS RS AF, the world's first underwater AF fisheye, in 1994; the Fisheye Type 20mm f/8, one of the "Amusing Nikon Lenses" sold only in Japan (Nippon) in 1995; and the FC-E8 fisheye converter for the COOLPIX line of digital cameras (1998). Sept 12: Fujifilm has announced a new medium format mirrorless camera: Fujifilm GFX 100 II. There are three new lenses alongside it, a GF 55mm f/1.7R WR and two new tilt-shift lenses. If you’re searching for a high-quality fisheye lens at an extremely affordable price, then the Rokinon is the perfect option. It’s an ideal starter lens for photographers who want to start experimenting with fisheye photography. Since it renders blues beautifully, it’s perfect for outdoor use and landscape photography. It delivers excellent performance with flashes, making it ideal for sports as well. On the other hand, circular fisheyes create a smaller image circle that easily fits within the image sensor’s boundaries. Thus, it captures a circular, smaller image that has an even wider viewing angle, measuring a full 180 degrees in both horizontal and vertical planes. What Does a Fisheye Lens Do?
