The Sigma 15mm f/2.8 EX DG Diagonal Fisheye is a full-frame fisheye auto focus lens that fills the entire 35mm negative with a full 180 degree diagonal field of view. This unique lens enables you to create a variety of unusual compositions even when shooting ordinary subjects. The improved DG lens coating reduces flare and ghosting which is a common problem of digital cameras and also creates an optimum color balance. Since most Digital SLR cameras use a smaller image sensor size (APS-C) than 35mm film cameras 180 degree angle-of-view can not be obtained with Digital SLR cameras. With those cameras only the center part of the frame is used therefore peripheral distortion will be very small. The super wide angle of this lens makes it ideal for use with digital SLR cameras providing a focal view of approximately 23mm.

"This 15mm f/2.8 Sigma lens performed great right out of the box with my Canon 350D. I take astro photographs of the night sky and it grabbed a bunch of sky with very minimal horizon bend. Nice piece of equipment. "

"I have had this lens for about 5-6 years, and it doesn't come out of the bag often, but when it does, everyone is stunned by the results. We are so used to seeing only 30-50 degrees of view that when you open it up to 180, it is like a whole new world. A lot of people use these for funky landscape …"  Read Full Review »

"I'm a Canon user. I have the 5D and the Rebel XT. I've always bought Canon glass because, well...that's what everyone in the know said to do. I'm glad I deviated from that on this lens. The image quality is top notch. Colors are bright and vivid. It also does a fantastic job of Star-ing out the sun. …"  Read Full Review »
