Rokinon FE75MFT-S 7.5mm F3.5 UMC Fisheye

If you have always wanted a fisheye lens for your m 4/3 camera but didn’t want to spend the big bucks for the Panasonic 8mm, this could be the lens for you.Don’t let the lack of auto focus and automatic aperture control prevent you from buying this lens. It’s pretty easy to use. You must use the lens in either manual or aperture priority mode and focus is very forgiving because of the large depth of field. Automatic and Program modes will not work with this lens. If you want to check focus, you can very easily use the zoom display function and then set the focus. To use this lens, you must set your camera to “Shoot Without Lens” before using this lens because there is no electrical connections between the camera and the lens and the camera will not know that it is attached. To set the f-stop, you use a aperture ring on the lens, just like in the days before fully automatic SLRs. I normally shoot in manual or aperture priority mode, and I really like having the aperture control on the lens instead of using a control on the camera body.The size of this lens is perfect for the micro 4/3 system. It’s not too big and it’s not too small.The lens is sharp even wide open and the build quality is excellent. Yes it produces a distorted image..its a fisheye, but distortions are corrected in Photoshop or Lightroom and it does not produce a black frame around the image like other fisheyes.The Rokinon 7.5mm is great for video and HDR photos.I did a side by side test with a friends Panasonic 8mm and the image quality is pretty similar. But I have to admit, the Panasonic is easier to use because of the auto focus.This isn’t the kind of lens you will use every day so the significantly lower cost than the Panasonic 8mm is much appreciated. No regrets on this purchase.Wow, this really is an amazingly good fisheye lens. At the price it is even more incredible.First, the image quality: At F/5.6 it is razor sharp all the way into the extreme corners, at F/3.5 (wide open) it is razor sharp across almost the entire frame and is showing just the tiniest bit of softness (only visible at 200% really) in the extreme corners.
