anyone knows any fisheye converter for 67mm?

(poisoned already but still wanting to try out before buying tokina 10-24)

its tokina 11-16 or tamron 10-24 bro.. but why wasting money to the converter which might degrade IQ?

If you are referring to the Tokky fisheye, it's Tokina 10-17mm f3.5-4.5 AT-X 107. smile.gif

Forget about getting the cheapo Samyang. Save up a little more and straight for Tokky. You'll never regret.

but i think that tokina still n/a for sony mount yet..

mirror lockup function is something like to reduced vibration caused by shutter flip to record the image.. for better understanding can read at wiki. it can be accessed only in A700 brows.gif, A850 n A900 biggrin.gif

QUOTE(albnok @ Feb 25 2010, 05:33 PM)
MechaHerc: Because:

- the Canon/Nikon 85mm F1.8 lenses are pretty affordable already. I don't see why it should be F2.8.
- it might be SAM, seeing how Sony has not released any screw-drive lens since the 16-105mm F3.5-5.6 DT in 2007.
- it might be APS-C only. Though this can be a plus.

I could only approve of it, if:
- it has a much better MFD because it is an APS-C design (like the 50mm F1.8 DT SAM). At least 45cm would be good since the 85mm lenses all only go to 85cm close at the moment.
- it has better maximum magnification, say 1:4x like the 50mm F1.8 DT SAM.
- it is much, much cheaper - maximum RM790 street price.
- it has fast gearing (whether SAM or not). So you can use it as a medium range telephoto to shoot action and portraits.
- it is sharp wide open, and contrasty. So far all the SAM lenses are good optically so this should not be a worry.

yeah, just google it, i see nikon, canon 85mm is pretty cheap.. around $380-450-ish at amazon..

now i understand wat u want to point out here..
