    Re: Cheap fisheye

    In this thread they talk about the Zenitar fisheye lens for around $ 150 and from the posts, it seems to do an alright job...

    there are always a few of them on ebay ...

    I don't know anything about the one in your link but when it comes to glass ... seems like you get what you pay for ... at least the people here have good things to say about the zenitar for a fun lens to play with

    I got a Peleng 3.5mm-8mm and I really enjoy it for fun shots.
    Think it was bout $200 off of eBay.
