Lacks circular/diagonal versatility on APS, C and APS, H cameras, fisheye distortion effect is minimised at 15mm on an APS, C camera, very expensive for a fisheye lens
On a full-frame camera such as the EOS Canon 5D Mark II, the EF 8-15mm Fisheye is a wonderfully versatile lens that enables you to switch between circular and diagonal fisheye effects with a twist of the zoom ring. Image quality is very good in terms of s...
Abstract: Need a more creative lens for your already packed kit bag? The Canon EF 8-15mm f/4 L Fisheye USM with 180° diagonal field-of-view could be just what you ve been waiting for...
The Canon EF 8-15mm f/4L Fisheye USM remains a slight oddity and yet an extremely fun lens to use. The optical quality is impressive for such a wide lens and the performance is exceptional, from the autofocus to the weather-sealing.For full-frame users, h...

Hood must be removed for full circular effect, Expensive
The Canon EF 8-15mm f/4L Fisheye USM is a unique lens that can capture a circular image or zoom-in for a more traditional fish-eye look, but you'll pay a lot for it...
Dual circular and diagonal fisheye options on fullframe cameras, Impressive image quality, Fabulous Lseries build quality and ringtype USM autofocus
Absence of circular/diagonal versatility on APSC and APSH cameras, Fisheye distortion effect is minimized at 15mm on an APSC camera, Quite expensive for a fisheye lens
Summing up the Canon EF 8-15mm f/4L Fisheye USM Review, you get to know that this Canon device comes with better image quality in terms of sharpness and contrast. However, the price appears to be bit high. On a full-frame camera, the EF 8-15mm Fisheye is ...
Abstract: Die Welt durch Fischaugen sehen – das neue Canon EF 8-15mm f/4L Fisheye USM macht's möglich. Zwar sollte man mit dem Ultraweitwinkelzoom lieber nicht auf Tauchgang gehen, aber der 180-Grad-Bildwinkel bietet auch an Land außergewöhnliche Perspektiven. Play...
Qualité de fabrication et de finition, Confort d'utilisation, Ouverture constante f/4, Plage de focale fisheye ultra grand-angle, Production d'images circulaires au 8 mm
Intérêt limité hors images circulaires avec un capteur 24x36, Recadrage nécessaire jusqu'au 14 mm avec un capteur 24x36, Aberrations chormatiques importantes, Baisse de piqué sur les bords, Distorsions élevées (c'est normal)
Au final, ce zoom un peu hors norme permet de produire des images originales qui feront leur effet, mais qui pourront vite lasser. L'abus de fisheye (pas de jeu de mots) est mauvais pour les yeux, à consommer avec modération! La qualité optique de cet obj...
