Description:
I have a Manual Focus, Rectilinear fisheye for sale.
Bought in 05 August 2009 from McGill House, so still under their 1 year warranty. This is a sharp copy, especially when stopped down. Does not have misfocused problem that came with some copies. Lens is as I have bought it, no scratches etc

Optics are clear as lens is always in Dry Cabinet when not in use. Probably <50 shots taken with this lens on my 5d2.

Reviews online all have said that this is a value for money FE

Reason for selling: Getting other lenses

Deal in the East, please PM me if interested

Additional Comments:

I have some queries on how this lens perform on a cropped sensor camera like 1000D, 450D,500D, 40D/50D.

I got this lens when I am using a 5d2, so I do not have pics of it on cropped sensors.
From what I have read online, you will lose quite a bit of the "fisheye" look and it looks more like a slightly distorted wide-angle lens.

However, if you do plan to go full frame in the future, this lens will fit fine
