    • Canon Rebel T6i - bad experience
Size: For Canon
Review Image by Kevin Kevin
Review Image by Kevin Kevin
I was very excited to find a fisheye lens for my Canon T6i for under 200 bucks, and I even did the Amazon Credit Card sign-up to get the extra -$80 off-putting my total cost at just under $110. I was thinking I was really getting this thing for a song. The lens came this afternoon, a DAY early no less! How much more 'right' could this get? Then I started doing my test shots. Immediately I had problems getting a properly exposed image. Now... I am no professional photographer... and I am using a crop sensor $400 Canon Body (The Rebel T6i) which is pretty good... but it's no 5Dmk3... But still... I was expecting more, especially after watching the Gojo tutorials and reviews on this lens. First thing - when they say it is fully manual... they are not kidding. The image feedback in Live View is waaaaay off. I went searching the interwebs for answers to correct this and after 2 hrs of dinking with it, and reading up online and watching videos of 'similar' camera setups (cuz there was no setup for EXACTLY my camera... closest I found was for the 70D) ... anyway, the Live View is unusable with this lense. That means you are using 100% the viewfinder to get your settings right. Sadly, the T6i doesn't even acknowledge that the lens is attached, so you have to futz around with the settings to jigger it without bad information on the screen. Essentially you cannot rely on the settings of the screen. The histogram reads hot, so you have to manually compensate if you use the histogram. The exposure meter in the viewfinder reads anywhere from 2 - 2.5 stops over... and to top it off.. the IMAGE that shows up when you review what you just shot on the camera screen is also WAAAAY off.. so the only real way to know what your image looks like is to download it to your computer and call it up on Photoshop/Lightroom (i used photoshop) and look at the Histogram there and make your notes, and then go BACK to the camera and reset your settings so you can get a properly exposed image. After doing all this, the sun was getting low in the sky and so I went ahead and got some test shots, went back to my porch, got some final shots and THEN I swapped lenses to a Canon lens so I could compare the colors and the detail. I was very disappointed. The comparison lens I used was the Canon EFS 10-22mm. It was the next Widest lens I have. The image I am including is the from the Altura Fisheye In all the test photo's there was terrible chromatic aberration. I've blown up the small red square so you can see it (hopefully it will be visible on this review) The clouds have a red edge, and there is a thick purple smear of color along the edge of the wall at the sky. The purpose I bought this lens was to stitch together 360-degree spherical images. And for that purpose, the detail at the edges of the frame are in some ways more important than the detail in the center of the frame, because that is where the stitcher is pulling common points to create the spherical image. So, to have a lense that has terrible chromatic aberration on the edges of the image... That's a deal-breaker for me. I gave this an overall 3-star rating because the construction of the lens is good. It is solid and has the kind of weight that other similar fisheye lenses I have worked with in the past do. I am sorry to report, in my case, the Canon EOS Rebel T6i this lense is a terrible fit. [Amendment] 24 hrs later, still doing test shots, I have determined that if you use the histogram information to set up your shot, you will get a terribly dark/unusable shot. The live-view screen histogram is unusable. You have to do a test-shot, then look at the test shot in review and examine the histogram THEN. Unfortunately, because of the view-screen is SO dark during shooting (especially if you are in the sun) the only way you can see your image enough to use the viewer for framing is to bump it up 3 stops... get your framing.. then bump it back down, switch off live-view and just use the screen for data. Again, this review pertains specifically to the Canon T6i. Seems the 5D series have the ability to make the View Screen function normally with this lens. If you are shooting a T6 series (or similar, I imagine) forget relying on the view-screen. You will HAVE to go old-school on this one. ... show more

    • Very photo specific!
Size: For Nikon
This lens was just as described, I wish I had done more research as to the specific photos. This was best for! I ended up returning the lens, but only because it did not fit the photo job that I needed it for great customer service.

Update 06/25/2021: I have had the 8MM F/3.0 Altura Lens for a little over six months and decided to update my review. Among other things, I've learned that there are at least two ways to flatten the horizon: (1) Use the LCD monitor and move the camera low and straight until the horizon flattens. (2) Use software like Photoshop (expensive) or GIMP (free) to remove lens distortion. There are several good Youtube videos that walk you through the steps concerning the removal of lens distortion and changing the photograph's perspective, among other things. I have added two photos of the sunset over the ocean. One shows the distortion and the other shows the distortion removed using GIMP. I don't use this lens every time I go out, but it definitely adds a degree of fun and creativity when I do. I have added a few more photos after the sunset photos so you can see what I have done with this lens. Original Review: I have a Canon T7 camera with three interchangeable Canon lenses (regular, zoom, and portrait). I've been taking nice photos with this set-up and started looking for a wide-angle lens that would give me even more flexibility. Canon lenses are quite expensive, but in my search, I noticed the Altura fisheye lens for a more reasonable price. It fits nicely on the camera and is completely manual which the advertising says you might have to get used to. I watched a few Altura 3.0 YouTube videos to get an idea of what the lens was all about and then started shooting. You attach it just like any lens, set the camera to manual, and make settings for f-stop and distance on the lens (infinity is good for most things) and start shooting. After a few shots and realizing you can see clearly on the camera screen what the shot will look like before you click the shutter button) I was getting impressive results. All the photos you see here have NOT been edited in any way although you can adjust them if you like using Photoshop, GIMP, Lightroom, etc. The lens is made from metal and is durable as a result. Highly recommend this product. ... show more

I received my Altura 8mm Fisheye lens for my Nikons and found that the learning curve for use was about 5 minutes. The easy to understand videos for the lens had me shooting and enjoying the lens quickly. I found the lens to be a bit loose on my Nikon D3300. When mounted, it did not lock into place and, turning the bezels of the lens to the left tended to loosen the lens. It moved while mounted, (rattled) but once held steady was ok. It was easy, however to simply support the camera by holding the lens in place while using the on-lens bezels, so that it did not loosen up between shots. I tried this same lens on my Nikon D3500, and the looseness disappeared, and the lens locked into place like a lens should! Apparently, the mounting hole on the D3000 is a bit larger than that on the D3500. So, with a little care it is usable on both cameras, but you'll want to watch for loosening if used on a Nikon D3000. This is a MANUAL lens. No auto focus, no monitoring, so you have to set your camera to "M" and adjust your lens by hand. Set your ISO on the camera and your shutter speed too, take a couple of test shots and go for it! The reasonable price of this lens outweighs any minor inconvenience that the looseness on the D3300 presents. It comes with a n interesting zip-open lens case that is BIG, so you'll need to make room in your camera bag. All in all, it's a keeper and I'll be using it often. Edit! BONUS! The skies were blue and the sun was bright and in the photo. The lens presented with a natural, sharp sun flare that's a great accent point! ... show more
