The Zuiko Digital ultra-wide fisheye lens helps you master light more effectively, even while providing an extreme 180-degree angle of view. Built from the ground up for digital photography, it channels more light to the image sensor for outstanding edge-to-edge results.This pristine glass lens delivers light directly to each of the imager's pixels. From center to edge, each image is filled with rich, accurate color, high contrast and subtle gradation. Designed exclusively for digital photography, Zuiko Digital Lenses provide a level of precision that's unattainable from a digital body using a traditional 35mm film lens.A must for fans of wide-angle photography, this ED Glass 8mm fisheye is ideal for viewing and composing dramatic ultra-wide "fisheye" images. Captures vivid detail with a 180 degree angle of view (diagonally) from as close as 5.3 inches to as far as infinity. Dust- and splash-resistant design lets you shoot in any weather.To correct lens distortions, shading and exposure information, this amazing lens has an upgradeable built-in computer that communicates directly with the camera's software. As a result, an exceptional level of control and accuracy is achieved, well beyond the capabilities of a passive lens.
