wow,, bid is at 50K and still not at the reserve! crazy..
These fisheyes are funky lens. I waited and waited, and managed to get the 8mm 2.8 for 800 dollars (it had a damage on the lens cover edge, nothing else.
these are very fun lens, produce images that most people do not really like, or distortions that are more carnival like. but sometimes, fun to play with.
so,, between 800-1500 dollars can often land a clean 8mm lens (makes sure it is the later design that works well with the current cameras) .
but to go beyound 8mm is little gain huge huge expense,, can you imagine even going out with this lens, one bump... and there goes your investment.
