  • While we can't tell you quantitatively just how good the Canon 8-15mm /4 L USM Fisheye lens is, we can say that it's both a versatile and fun lens to use. It's basically two fisheye lenses in one, offering full horizontal and vertical 180 degree cove...

  • Abstract:  Fisheye lenses allow photographers to shoot spectacular pictures with extreme viewing angles. In combination with a 24x36mm full frame sensor DSLR camera, the Canon EF 8-15mm allows for either full frame or circular fisheye images; with smaller sensor...

  • Unique, zooming fish-eye design, Full circular image at wide angle, Full-frame compatibility, L-series construction
  • Hood must be removed for full circular effect, Expensive
  • The Canon EF 8-15mm f/4L Fisheye USM is a unique lens that can capture a circular image or zoom-in for a more traditional fish-eye look, but you'll pay a lot for it...

  • Dual circular and diagonal fisheye options on fullframe cameras, very good image quality, excellent Lseries build quality and ringtype USM autofocus
  • Lacks circular/diagonal versatility on APSC and APSH cameras, fisheye distortion effect is minimised at 15mm on an APSC camera, very expensive for a fisheye lens
  • On a full-frame camera such as the EOS Canon 5D Mark II, the EF 8-15mm Fisheye is a wonderfully versatile lens that enables you to switch between circular and diagonal fisheye effects with a twist of the zoom ring. Image quality is very good in terms of ...

  • Dual circular and diagonal fisheye options on fullframe cameras, Impressive image quality, Fabulous Lseries build quality and ringtype USM autofocus
  • Absence of circular/diagonal versatility on APSC and APSH cameras, Fisheye distortion effect is minimized at 15mm on an APSC camera, Quite expensive for a fisheye lens
  • Summing up the Canon EF 8-15mm f/4L Fisheye USM Review, you get to know that this Canon device comes with better image quality in terms of sharpness and contrast. However, the price appears to be bit high. On a full-frame camera, the EF 8-15mm Fisheye is ...

  Published: 2015-01-16, Author: Arthur , review by: focus-numerique.fr

  • Qualité de fabrication et de finition, Confort d'utilisation, Ouverture constante f/4, Plage de focale fisheye ultra grand-angle, Production d'images circulaires au 8 mm
  • Intérêt limité hors images circulaires avec un capteur 24x36, Recadrage nécessaire jusqu'au 14 mm avec un capteur 24x36, Aberrations chormatiques importantes, Baisse de piqué sur les bords, Distorsions élevées (c'est normal)
  • Au final, ce zoom un peu hors norme permet de produire des images originales qui feront leur effet, mais qui pourront vite lasser. L'abus de fisheye (pas de jeu de mots) est mauvais pour les yeux, à consommer avec modération! La qualité optique de cet obj...

  • Abstract:  Die Welt durch Fischaugen sehen – das neue Canon EF 8-15mm f/4L Fisheye USM macht's möglich. Zwar sollte man mit dem Ultraweitwinkelzoom lieber nicht auf Tauchgang gehen, aber der 180-Grad-Bildwinkel bietet auch an Land außergewöhnliche Perspektiven. Play...

  • Abstract:  Vid både natur- och arkitekturfoto kan ett fisheye-objektiv inspirera till annorlunda och iögonfallande bilder. I normalfallet måste man välja mellan ett cirkulärt eller ett formatfyllande fisheye-objektiv, men Canon EF 8-15mm F4.0 L omfattar som vär...
