Fisheye lenses can be a lot of fun to play with creating
interesting effects and distorting visual reality. Some photographers will
dismiss them as a “toy”, but they have their place in a camera bag.
Fisheye lens is an ultra wide-angle lens. They a short convex
lens which can take a frame up to 180o of view. I always need to
lean forward to ensure my feet are not in shot. Using a tripod can also be
tricky if not positioned correctly, as can be the photographer’s shadow.
Using a fisheye lens
Get close to the subject, real close, between 3cm and
30cm. Keep the subject in the centre of the frame, as distortion and bending
occurs at the edge of the frame.
