Rokinon FE8M-N 8mm F3.5 Fisheye Lens for Nikon $214 + 2% Awards + FS

Rokinon FE8M-N 8mm F3.5 Fisheye Lens for Nikon @ Amazon [amazon.com]
Rokinon FE8M-N 8mm F3.5 Fisheye Lens for Nikon @ B&H Photo [bhphotovideo.com]

Price - $214 + FS

The NEW ROKINON 8mm Ultra Wide Angle Fisheye Lens is the most affordable 8mm Fisheye Lens in the market. It features the widest field of view over any other 8mm fisheye lens, and its build quality and optical construction are superb. The ROKINON 8mm lens is designed for digital SLR cameras with APS-C image sensors. For these types of cameras, it provides full-frame coverage - which means that pictures will cover the entire frame. It is also compatible with cameras that have a full-frame sensor. For cameras with full-frame sensors, the lens will produce pictures with a semi-circular image and close images will appear proportionately large for a dramatic effect. The ROKINON 8mm lens creates images with an expanded and exaggerated perspective and an extremely wide 180° angle of view. The lens is available for the following mounts: Canon EOS, Nikon, Sony Alpha, Pentax & Olympus 4/3.

Is the other one better? I have a full-frame camera, how much does the hood block and how much do I gain with the other lens?

It appears to be the same lens, just with the removable hood. If you want to save the difference in price, some people remove the fixed hood on the original version.

Amazon and B&H also have the Nikon version with the focus/exposure chip for $229. Definitely the way to go if you're shooting a Nikon without the non-CPU lens feature - d90, d5100, etc.

If you're thinking about this lens, get it. Really top-notch image quality for the price. Great unusual perspective and non-distorting projection. One of my favorite lenses.

While it would be really fun, I think I'd be better off waiting for a slickdeal on the removable hood model. For crop sensor cameras, this seems like a great deal on a fun lens!
