For that price you could get ten 200/1.8 lenses.

Holy hell. I want to see what kind of photos this sucker would take. Off to Google......

[cgatto]

Already found all that. Only found one image though with a quick scan. Plenty of reading, especially on other forums.

[wallybud]

Supposedly there are three images by a Jean Claude from france but am having trouble locating the right guy ;)

[Zoso23]

woah!! that is extremely cool.

[wallybud]

Found images...

From the 6mm 5.6

And I believe from the 6mm 2.8

Try and check the EXIF, I cant

[wallybud]

with the 220 degrees of view lol apparently at 6mm on FF body with a subject at a distance of 1 foot. Stopped down to F16 (assuming it goes that high?) the DOF is .2feet - infinity!

THATS A CRAP LOAD OF DOF! haha

[wallybud]

Also heres sample from freakin rockwell of the 8mm 2.8

(o.0)

Christ on a cracker, that is excessive.....

But still really neat.

[SRA]

I've saw two of these last year. One was at Gray's of Westminster in London and the other at the Nikon Flagship store on Bastille in Paris. They have a 220 degree acumen. Literally they can see behind itself.

I'll have to pass this, because: "Shipping to Finland -- US $150"

150 bucks?!?!½

(:p)

[SteveBrown]

I would assume the insurance must be most of that price.

[xoldboy]

Errr...im lost for words. Actually, ill take a Canon 200 1.8L instead.

lol agreed. eh, id settle for any l lens.
