I love the first and the 4th one. It's interesting how none of them look like a fisheye shot except the last one.

Arizona Dave · 10-16-2011, 05:16 PM

Thanks guys. If the horizon (or center of the shot for the 4th) is centered it limits the readily noticable fisheye distortion.

1. HDR + Fisheye, Distort Reality!

2. Colorado River

3. Shaffer Trail

4. Approaching the Shaffer Switchbacks (I actually reduced the distortion a little in post for this one because of how the motorcycle is positioned)

Yeah, and here's the side of that overhang in non-fisheye. At least they had it right, once :-)

Nice shot PFH, great colors and setting. I'm glad I just bought this lens, now I just need to find such a nice setting to try it out.

Thanks a lot kenafein and congrats on a great lens, it's hard to fail with this excellent fish-eye lens.
Just go out and have fun, you will be amazed by the images it produce.

Best regards, Peter.
