Rokinon HD8M-N 8mm
A compact 197g fisheye for Micro Four Thirds, this manual-focus 7.5mm f/3.5 lens delivers a 180° field of view with a close-focus distance of just 4 inches. Its ultra-wide perspective and built-in petal hood make it ideal for dramatic landscapes and interiors, though it lacks autofocus and weather sealing. Best suited for travel photographers and interior shooters seeking extreme, creative wide-angle effects on a lightweight kit.
