Nikon AF-S FISHEYE NIKKOR 8–15mm f/3.5–4.5E ED

£1300/$1250 www.nikon.com

Fisheye lenses are common enough, but this is Nikon’s first ever fisheye zoom. Its unique feature is its ability to swap from a circular fisheye at 8mm (which produces a circular image with black corners) to a full-frame fisheye at 15mm. As Nikon says, it’s like having two fisheye effects in one lens.

Designed to fit Nikon’s full-frame FX cameras, the lens has an astonishingly close minimum focus distance of just 0.16m and is also dust and drip-resistant .

Fisheye lenses can produce striking interior, landscape and sports shots, and this circular/full-frame fisheye combination is very clever design that really is like having two lenses for the price of one.
