A Walk in The Rocks with the Sigma 15mm f/2.8 Fisheye…

by on May.19, 2013, under Life, Photography, Street

I joined a fellow Sydney based photographer for a lunchtime photowalk through Sydney’s historic Rocks area. I only took my camera with the Sigma 15mm f/2.8 fisheye lens to see what I could make with such a wide lens.

The Sigma full frame fisheye lens produces a full rectilinear image with a 180 degree diagonal field of view.

Note: These photographs (especially the wider shots) look much better when larger – so click any of the images below to see larger versions in an inline overlay slideshow gallery viewer.

Even with such a fixed wide lens you can sometimes just take in an almost macro view…
