Taking this thread back to its original subject. I’ve recently seen some shots taken with this lens over Salisbury Plain and Dartmoor from a a helicopter from a height of 600 feet. They were very impressive showing great detail of the ground.

I gather it has 190 degree vision
I get the video and drone stuff but would you ever take a photo with it.... for instance on top of a viewpoint such as the Shard to show London spread out in front of you?
Or would the bendy bits mean you'd be better doing a panorama stitch ?Last edited by Leonardo; 15-07-2022, 02:43.

An interesting one! Maybe it will find it's use in some commercial projects? I do lots of wedding films and can't really think of it as part of my kit. If I did have it in my bag then it would only be used from time to time but at that price it's an expensive lens to have just to do an extra shot or two on a wedding day.

And is this the first time anyone has produced a dual lens ?

Handy to get a shot of what’s going on behind you at the same time as the shot in front!

Not something I will be buying then as not a pretty sight, great for the pornographers though.

I have read that the field of view of this lens is so wide that if you look through the viewfinder, you can see your own backside!Tags: None
