Verdict
Given that this is a full-frame lens, it is tempting to ask whether its behaviour on an APS-C body is more subtle. The answer is a qualified ‘no'. Although the distortion is less severe it is still very obvious and nobody would ever doubt that a ‘fisheye' lens had been used. As such, the value of this lens comes down to personal preference regarding the distinctive ‘fisheye' look.
