After taking some shots from the top edge of a half pipe of some BMX freestyle riders and was wondering if anybody has any experience of this with a 1DMKII N and the 1.3 crop using a fisheye lens.

See there are loads on the market and would love some feedback on what sort of performance you guys have had from various lenses and possibley some samples of some action shots from a MKII N with a fisheye.

Have done a search but did not really come up with anything regarding the use of fisheye lenses on a 1DMKII N.

Cheers.

William Taylor used the Peleng on his 1dMKIIN here. Maybe he has some more stuff floating around.

Are you looking for a circular fish-eye or diagonal? I do enjoy my SIgma 15/2.8 on the MKIIN but some are looking for more pronounced results.

More diagonal as do not really like the effect of the image appearing in a circle, really i would like to fit the complete width of the top of the half pipe in.
