Pros: Ridiculously low price. Hyper-compact and lightweight: it weighs only 30g. Good sharpness in the center. Creative fisheye effect (140°). Simple design with manual focus lever.

Cons: It is a stopper, not a goal. Fixed aperture f/8. Manual focus. Soft edges. Chromatic aberrations visible in high-contrast scenes. Not suitable for professional photography.

Opinion: The Olympus 9mm f/8 Fisheye Body Cap Lens is a cap, not really a lens. It is ultra-compact and lightweight (30g) designed for Micro Four Thirds cameras, with an affordable price (about €85-90). It offers a 140-degree angle of view, ideal for creative fisheye effects, but is limited by a fixed f/8 aperture and manual focus. It's more of a fun and portable accessory than a high-performance lens, perfect for amateur photographers who want to experiment with exaggerated perspectives without breaking the bank. Get it if: You would like to get a fish eye, but you don't know if you will use it or think you will be bored. It's an affordable and fun option for those who want to explore fisheye photography without professional expectations. Its portability and price make it an attractive addition for amateur photographers, but the technical limitations relegate it to creative and occasional use.

Pros: Negligible price, minimum size

Cons: Not excellent quality, but it seems obvious to me

Opinion: It's probably the least expensive lens on the market, so you can't fault it that much. A fun toy, with a few euros you can take home a usable wide-angle lens. The best feature is the zero footprint and minimal weight, you carry the camera around as if it were a smartphone, even in the pocket of your jacket. For this, it is really convenient.

Pros: Compactness, weight, cost

Cons: no focus, plastic, fixed aperture

Opinion: Well, for the price it has in my opinion you can't expect more. He knows how to do his dirty work and even well. Surely we need a minimum of post-production to bring out the best. The only drawback in my opinion, in addition to the fact that it is entirely plastic, is that it does not have the ability to focus and change the diaphragm. For the rest nothing to say, I really enjoy using it

Pros: Maybe the cost

Cons: Apetura. Dimensions. Quality. But it's all well known. Olympus calls it a "stopper."

Opinion: At such a low cost, what can you expect? Little. On the other hand, it is not even called as a lens, but as a cap. The size is tiny, as is the weight, but it is so small that it disappears even in the smallest bodies. The quality is absolutely comparable to the cost, low because it is low. But it is all known at the time of purchase and this is the only merit that can be attributed. A value that is not entirely obvious.

Pros: Portability, price, weight

Cons: Sharpness, darkness.

Opinion: Spending $50 on a lens makes you think you're holding a toy in your hands. And indeed it is, at least from the point of view of fun. With this lens on the camera body, you're ready to shoot at any time, with unrivalled portability. It is at its best combined with a mini tripod, for long evening exposures in urban areas or during the day for panoramas. Is it a professional lens? No. Is it suitable for any occasion? Does it allow you to have fun? Yes. And for the money it costs, it has an unparalleled quality/price ratio.
