Pros: + Incredible sharpness up to f / 16, still very acceptable up to f/22 or f/29. + Fisheye 8mm for circular, 14mm or 15mm for diagonal in a single lens. + The cap clings to the sun visor, it's practical not to dirty the front glass.

Cons: ~ More Bi-focal lens than real zoom, but in my opinion, it does the job! - The lateral light gives flare. - The "Slip-on Front Lens Cap LC-K102" becomes embarrassing when you take it off. You no longer know where to put it.

Opinion: This is the kind of preferred goal, beyond reason. As Diego Camorani tells us, we like it or hate it. Personally, this is the lens that inspires me the most ... BUT, very often, the scene that you would like to photograph is not suitable for a FishEye ... it is only specific to this lens, which at on the contrary, allows two solutions: the circular and the diagonal. I would like to say that the rating given by Juza users, for once, does not reflect reality. This lens is worth at least as much as its Canon counterpart ... or more. I recommend this article which, in my opinion, best corresponds to my experience in the field: https://www.lenstip.com/538.1-Lens_review-Nikon_Nikkor_AF-S_Fisheye_8-15_mm_f_3.5-4.5E_ED_review.html In conclusion, I absolutely do not regret my purchase, and I am not afraid to say that Nikon has put on the market an exceptional lens ... and it is rare enough to say it.

Pros: Good sharpness, originality of the project

Cons: The front lens very exposed but this is inevitable, uselessness of the project

Opinion: This lens is very good, sharpness adequate to 45 mpxl, excellent project, but ... What's the use? And let me explain: under 14mm (focal length under which you must also remove the hood) the image is no longer full frame but rather spherical and, to be honest, the photo obtained seems to have been taken with a mobile phone. Does this encourage creativity? Maybe, I don't know, but I see that those like me who buy it take a few test photos at 8mm and then use it practically always at 15mm. What can I say, in my opinion this is not slow to buy and if the monkey just does not let you sleep, well, take out the monkey itself! The old 16mm AFD optically is not very far away but clutters little, weighs little, costs little and moreover its robustness is proverbial, it is built in healthy metal alloy and will never creak in your backpack. In short, that of 8-15 is certainly a courageous project, a bit like that of Defocus 105 and 135. And just like DCs, once you buy it, you're wondering, "What do I do with it now?"

Pros: All

Cons: anything relevant

Opinion: Either you love or hate you, what to say is that optics that allows you to realize that particular idea or you want to incorporate everything around you into a somewhat distorted view. I owned it when I used canon and I couldn't resist the temptation and I bought it in the nikon version as well. very satisfied, great for set macros, recommended for creatives!

Pros: Sharpness, lightness, color fidelity, the fact that it is zoom

Cons: Hood after 14 mm should be removed

Opinion: A good goal for the creatives, you have to take our hand! RnThe fact that the ball does not care me a bit, however it produces from 8mm to 13mm, who needs filters should buy them from third parties, and should be put behind (jelly) The hoodhole serves a bit unless you zoom in! The depth of field is immense, the price is in line with the product here in Lugano the cost is 1370 fr .rn
