Hi guys,

I'm thinking of buying a fisheye lens and unsure what size to get..
I'm thinking either the Sigma 10mm or Sigma 15mm (both 2.8 and for Sony)
Any recommendations?

Maybe I'd be better off getting the likes of a Sigma 8-16.. It would be used for landscapes, maybe quirky portraits etc.. Possibly indoor shops as I've had people ask me for these before but I'm not sure if any would be suitable because of the distortion, help!

I really like the style of these photos (taken by Mike Matas) and I wondered if you could tell what lens he's used for them?

Samyang 8mm if they make one for Sony, but I'm not sure what lens was used for these shots.

Cheers guys.
I had a look at that link Rob, he also uses a 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 lens and a 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM Ultra Wide Angle Zoom Lens. May even be one of those but they looked too wide to me for them not to be taken by a fisheye! But I'm unsure.

Not sure whether I should go for the likes of a 10-20mm lens or a fisheye myself :/
 
The Samyang 8mm lens will produce those types of shots. Not sure if they do them in Sony mount but as the are manual focus you could buy one on another mount and buy an adapter to go with it.
