Mike I HAD the Canon mount version. It was stolen in Valencia. Even on a 30D it had some pretty serious vignetting. I still think it’s great value for money and I still like the low-fi look but I replaced it now with the Canon 15mm fisheye because I needed a fisheye for my full frame cam. And the Peleng made it clear that I had a use for a fisheye, so I didn’t mind spending a bit more.

Hey Luke, once you get the hang of it, the manual controls don’t slow you down indeed.

I would expect a lens designed for fisheye to perform better than a lens with a fisheye adapter thrown on the front of it.

Good post. My Peleng 8mm just arrived and I love it!! The manual everything isn’t a problem at all.

@Vince: With mine, no adapter is needed, it has already an EF-mount. I wasn’t sure about that either so I exchanged some e-mails with the seller before buying.

@Joe: No idea, how they compare, maybe someone else can jump in.
