Let Sleeping Dogs Lie

I came across this Leonberger chilling outside an Artist's Gallery in Aberdeen.
I was trying out a new setup I bought used recently - Olympus OM-D E-M10 + Samyang 7.5MM Fisheye.
Chuffed with the image quality so far

Nice different perspective. How are you getting with/finding the samyang fisheye? Is it manual focus only?

Great capture and the new lens looks to be the business a friend has also purchased the Samyang for his Fuji X cameras.

Thanks Folks

Yes Jonothan, its a fully manual lens. I normally shoot around f5.6 on the Olympus and rarely need to focus.
Fantastic image quality!!
The lens is so small and FOV is so wide that I sometimes get my fingers in the shot from the way I hold the camera/lens.
I'd highly recommend this lens.
If you keep the camera level and the horizon in the middle you can minimise the fisheye effect
