7Artisans 6mm F2.0 6mm
Combining a 220° circular fisheye perspective with an f/2.0 constant aperture, this 6mm manual lens captures extreme wide-angle views with dramatic distortion even in low light. Its full-metal body and 0.1m minimum focus distance enable exaggerated, high-impact close-ups with smooth manual handling. Best for astrophotographers and experimental videographers who need immersive, space-bending shots from tight interiors or expansive night skies.
