Chris Cook Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 ACE pics! Nice lens aswell how much was it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manuel Posted September 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 ACE pics! Nice lens aswell how much was it ? ← Its a fairly cheap semi fish eye .42X from jessops - pretty rubbish - and i think its designed for a video camera so when we use it on the slr if you zoom out you get to see the sides of the inside of the lens..... and get the circle effect like this......

chrishayton Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 bad photos , and extremely poor lens . ← Bit mean isn't it. fair do's the photos and the highest quality due to poor lens, but they are taken well and look effective.

EDIT : Its late and TRA may well ( I hope so bad (god Im sad)) have been taking the piss ? anyway EDIT EDIT : well maybe not it seems . . .... It burns, It burns...

Luke Drewery Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 The lens is a little extreme but I like the photos nonetheless. Your bike looks well sweet rowan, my next frame will almost certainly be a KOT after seeing everyones built up. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F-Stop Junkie Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 bad photos , and extremely poor lens . ← Couldn't agree more. What are the photos of exactly? It was sunny, and they're all curvy. Big woop. That recent one is what, a guy sidehopping over a shadow? Who cares? You can get better results doing the same thing in photoshop, or splash a little cash and get a proper diagonal fisheye from someone like Sigma. If it's that sunny, then the pics are going to be sharp because the lens is stopped down so far, but you've stuck a £10 bit of plastic in front of your 'bloody good' camera, thus limiting it's performance. Not impressed. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthews Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 (edited) Really quality pic Rowan :) The bike is looking luverly as well ,are you still using those silly black pads? ;)" The lens makes it look super cool 'n' the quality aint half bad either :) The two geeza's above dont't no what they'r on about :P Edited September 15, 2005 by Matthews Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever since you started posting again I haven't read a good comment from you. :) ← Its Chris Ratcliffe. So if harsh, he does know what he's talking about. Personally, i think the pictures would of been 10x better if it wasn't for that lense. Its way to much. You need to get a lens that doesnt force you to look at the inside of it for half the picture. If you didn't have that lense, the pictures would be a lot better. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
