Pros: Optical and construction quality from professional lens

Cons: Filters

Opinion: There is not much to say about this lens, it is the only choice if you want a fisheye for Nikon APS-C, the quality is very high already at full opening, nothing to do with the fisheye of other famous third-party brands. Be careful if you have a non-motorized camera body because it is the only DX lens that does not have an autofocus motor. Great against in my opinion are the rear gelatin filters that Nikon among other things has never produced, they could very well use the bayonet filters of 15 and 16 and maybe rejuvenate a bit 'the catalog since there are only 6 filters and all for film. The only solution to use ND filters is to take the tragic jellies of Irix with a very strong red dominant. Vote 7 if you are interested in filters, otherwise 10 and praise well deserved

Pros: Everything (see opinions below made by other users), are the same so I do not repeat. One thing I add, price of the used.

Cons: Seeing opinions below made by other users are the same so I do not repeat.

Opinion: For abstract and deformed artistic use nothing to say, excellent all-round lens. The price found in the used is great. I recommend it only for creative uses or to be used with underwater case or similar for photos where water is a problem. Great street lens focuses everything so just shoot and just torso level. Rating 10.

Pros: Photo quality and amazing sharpness already at 2.8, construction

Cons: Only the price on the new

Opinion: I took this lens to get out a little bit from the usual standard photos, what to say, I was amazed by its quality and high sharpness, I assume I use it on D500. The focus, although using the camera engine, is fast and precise. To date its flaw is the price on the new, I took it used as new at 300 euros and in this case it is really convenient. Funny with endless creativity.

Pros: Sharpness, compactness, lightness, if found used well, quality value, small but powerful

Cons: Price taken nital and new, lens cover that tends to widen and get lost, chromatic aberration correctable in post, af not ultrasonic, but mechanical.

Opinion: I took this lens way back in 2012 from a private who had finished hobbies as a father. It is a lens that is not used every day, such as a 24-70 or on a dx an 18-105/16-85, so the used found was really little used. Although it is not always attached to the machine body, I always have it behind it as it is light and small, but it churns out images already from a simple d90, very particular. For one who does photogafia of events shows festival concerts etc... is the best. No lens can give that effect. Not even supergrandangers. Being 2.8 is useful in night events. The focus is not lightning, but with a wide-angle is not a problem nor for the fact that it is silent, since in my case, the events are much noisier. One flaw I can see is that the forward lens is at risk and the built-in lampshade does not defend much, even if fortunately nothing has ever happened. Some chromatic aberration that can be corrected in post. Summing up: small optics, but powerful. Not every day, but when he is called in, he does his job very well, he gives excellent results even on non-recent machines. an eye on the front cap that could get lost widening and the lens without protective filters is exposed despite the lampshade. As a yield, excellent sharpness albeit with a bit of aberration especially at 2.8. If found used it is a well-made and smart expense (from 350 to 500). New is no longer worth especially nital (almost 900 euros).

Pros: Great lens if that's what you're looking for

Cons: Nothing

Opinion: Complex lens to review, in fact leaving the white spaces above is the thing in my opinion more sensible. It is a very attractive price lens, dictated by a fast "reckless" post purchase resale of many. We go for order: This lens is born for DX, and used in such a way is a fantastic 15mm with an excellent image quality from edge to edge, and an enviable construction compared to modern lenses; On full frame it becomes a circular fish-eye, very complex to use correctly, and if purchased by "purists" of the photograph could prove a hole in the water. Indeed, it is a very artistic and little "technical" lens: If you are not imaginative (like me that in fact I resolute it in a lightning-fast way), you will throw the money and resell it. Note that on full frame to be used should be removed the "fins" of the lens hood, unfortunately not removable and then have to be cut with a criterion by an expert. You can find many in the market already arranged for use on FF. Surely it is a great lens for its segment, the problem lies precisely in finding its use. I sold it to a professional who would have to use it for photographs at 360 ° of interiors. Try it and do not buy it without having it first tested. But if you only need a wide angle for reduced size DX go quietly because there is better.
