Sigma 15mm f/2.8 EX DG Diagonal Fisheye review by dugong5pm
Review Date: 10/13/2012 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Total Spent: $360.00| Rating: 9 

 
Pros: price, image quality, build quality
Cons: bad finishing (body) paint

Stellar performance for a fisheye lens. The lens is bright & fast. It's really fun to use. Simply set it in f/5.6 - f/8 and voila, all sharp images across the frame.


I mostly use this lens for film (on my F75 or F90x). It brings great color saturation, sharpness & contrast across the images. It also comes in a small & light package. Like I've said earlier, it's a fun lens to use. If you see it, buy it. no regret!

Pros: Fun sharp lens!
Cons: I can't think of any...for a 15mm fisheye that has almost zero flare...super in my book!

This is a great fun lens. I would save a lot of $$ and buy this fisheye over the Nikon and Canon versions...every bit as good.


Here are some sample shots taken with a Nikon D200:

Pros: good optic quality
Cons: on APS-C sensor a 10mm would be better

This is a nice lens! Very good optics with high resolution and only very few CA´s. Distorcion could be stronger - I would prefer 10-12mm (8mm are too much - I don´t like the full circle). Good buildings, I gave 9 in construccion and 9 in picturequality. A real fun lens with a hell lot of DOF !!!
