List Of Fisheye Lenses For APS-C Cameras

There are a few other fisheye APS-C lenses out there, some more expensive, some with different builds.

In comparison, you can see the Pergear sits in the middle of element count at 9 elements vs 6 and 7 elements with the Opteka and Loawa and 11 with everyone else. The Loawa is actually a MFT fisheye lens that you can use on APS-C camera where you will see the full image circle.

What to do with a fisheye lens?

The big appeal to these fisheye lenses is most of them can capture a 130-degree field of view. It will give you a fisheye look, however, you can use software like Fisheye-Hemi to remove the fisheye effect for just an ultra-wide look or a rectilinear look. Essentially it does what a GoPro does. Superview – to wide – to linear.
