I was in Newtown last weekend and found myself an awesome little fisheye lens in one of the 'antique' shops. It was made to be used on film cameras, but with a couple of stepping rings, (that I purchased from the camera shop down there) I've managed to adapt it to screw onto my 50mm. Here's a shot of what the beast looks like:

Today I took the boys to the beach so we could test it out. I'm shooting on a full frame camera so the image doesn't fill the frame...but it's fun all the same. It's bloody wide too - you'll see my feet and shadow in a few of the frames.

So here's what I got. Not bad for a purchase that cost a smudge more than $50.
