8MM - 15MM FISH EYE LENS
For this workshop, I took out a NIkon camera to experiment with a 8mm - 15mm fish eye lens, I went around my home town (Southport), I tried to find different locations to shoot in that you never really see people taking images off around here. I found a few different places. The weather was very gloomy and dark as it is mid November, I like how this lens captures such a wide scale photo. It captures a full 180 degree landscape image. I like this lens because you can get a ultra wide panoramic photograph.
This image was taken at Southport train station. I love how the ultra wide lens captures so many things in one image. You get to see the main object of the image but it doesn't focus on that mainly because there is many other things in the image that capture your eye. This image is unedited, I just wanted to post it without anything edited on so you can see the effect the lens has.
This is another image captured with the same lens, this bridge is a very, very narrow bridge and I wanted to see what kind of effect the lens on the camera would have on a narrow place, the lens in fact made it look as if this bridge has a very large scale, when in fact it does not not. The lens seems to also capture the brighter colours and makes them stand out more.
My personal opinion is that I really enjoyed working with this lens because it shows how you can capture more than one object in one image, I would enjoy working with it in the future events because I feel as if this is a really good lens you could work with at big events to capture more things going on, more than just one object.
This is just another image I captured, on this specific image it shows the effect the fish eye lens has the image it shows the effect the fish eye lens has on the image. For example, because the road is straight ahead of this image, it looks very long and straight and captures it all; because the buildings are on the side of the image it shows how the lens has made the image curve around so that you can capture everything in it
