7Artisans 6mm f/2 6mm
Produces a sweeping 220° circular fisheye image with an f/2 aperture on APS-C sensors, enabling dramatic distortion and low-light shooting. The all-manual focus lens uses a 9-blade diaphragm and two ED elements to deliver smooth bokeh and decent sharpness for its class. This lens serves experimental portrait and macro photographers seeking a unique, ultra-wide perspective, not for conventional landscape work.
