Rokinon 8mm Nikon F-Mount

[CMoore]

Do you guys have any experience with this Rokinon Fish-Eye.?
I have always wanted a fish-eye.
I would not use it very often, and do not want to spend a whole lot for one...so i never got one do to price.
Anybody heard much about these.?
Thank You

Perhaps it'd be better to rent one if you have a project in mind.

I am wondering about Buying/Owning the lens. Id it is worth renting, i assume it is worth buying.
Mot to mention.....have no idea where i could rent a lens.
For a fish-eye, these things are somewhat "affordable".
Thanks

I have the Rokinon 8mm FE in Canon mount, and like it. I don't use it much, but when I have a need/desire to use it, it's been a fine performer. I haven't used it on a Canon film body, so no images to share, but it's been well worth the money. I think I got it a while back on sale for $159(?), maybe $179 or $199, but it was inexpensive for what it is.

That is amazing and quite inexpensive for what it can do.
