Precision Design 0.25X Super AF Fish Eye Lens for Film & Digital SLR Lenses by Canon

Bart — Tue, 28 Jun 2011 14:33:44 +0000

The all-glass high resolution optics of the Precision Design .25x Super Fish Eye is manufactured in Japan and have been engineered to do one thing and do it well; reduce the focal length of a lens by .25X to provide an amazing fish eye view. Depending on the camera model and lens it's mounted on, the image can cover the entire frame edge to edge or provide a circular image fully contained within the frame. Mounted to a zoom lens, the Precision Design .25X can often offer ultra wide angle, diagonal fisheye (full frame) and circular fisheye images. Close focusing is almost to the front of the optic and there's huge depth of field.

The .25X can be a great tool for real estate agents or for just having fun! If you plan on doing panoramic or full room shots, just stand your tripod in a corner facing the center of a room. It can capture almost EVERYTHING, floor to ceiling, wall to wall, except what is directly behind the camera. Just import the resulting image into a panoramic editor or "stitching program" (your digital camera probably came with one), convert it to a QuickTime VR file, and have a virtual view of the room.

The Precision Design .25X is the affordable fisheye optic for useful, unusual and fun pictures you otherwise wouldn't be able to obtain.

WILL WORK WITH ANY LENS WITH A FILTER SIZE OF 52mm, 55mm, 58mm & 62mm (lens is 58mm, 3 adapter rings included) which includes most Nikon, Canon, Olympus, Minolta Maxxum / Sony Alpha, Pentax, Tamron, Sigma, Tokina and other major brand lenses.

This 0.25x Super Fisheye Lens can mount to almost any digital or film SLR lens made with optional adapter rings.

Opteka EW-78BII Lens Hood for Canon EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS SLR Lens

Bart — Tue, 28 Jun 2011 13:02:23 +0000

The addition of a lens hood can help prevent flares--those circles of light that can accompany images where a strong light source is just outside the fame. These types of lens flares occur when indirect light rays pass through the front lens elements but don't make it all the way through to the image sensor. Opteka's EW-78BII Lens Hood is designed for the Canon EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS SLR Lens. Lens hoods are primarily designed to prevent unwanted stray light from entering the lens by extending and shading the end of the lens. In addition, since the end of the lens is extended, you also get the added benefit of some extra protection from accidental impact. This dedicated lens hood is designed to match the specific focal length of the lens it was designed for.
