If so I'd be interested to hear your opinions.

Chez used to have one but sold it a few months ago.

Hacker,

I managed to try the 10.5mm as well as the 12-24 and ended up buying a 12-24 at Focus.

The 10.5mm looked a lot of fun though, just don't walk around looking through the viewfinder as you will easily bump into things :bang: as I did trying to photograph someone.

Unfortunately, I deleted my test pics from it.

Thanks Jas.

.....and ended up buying a 12-24 at Focus.

I'm not jealous. Not one little bit. Not at all.

I have been thinking about getting the 16mm f2.8 Fish but need to sort other things out first

Forgot to mention I also went to the Sigma stand to try the 4.5mm fisheye, just for the heck of it. It's a bonkers lens with the view you get from it, probably no practical application at all but would be a hell of a lot of fun. It's like looking through the equivalent of one of those 'funny' mirrors you get at a funfair.

I have a 10.5mm
I really like it and seeing as I do skateboard photography it's very useful. Also used it to get close to objects to fit more.

Pictures from it are on my Flickr

Yea just saw his post in the gallery. Quite quick seeing as he asked about it on the 27th! My fisheye took almost a whole month just because Warehouse Express didnt say that it was going to take till March till they got them in stock. Good job I e-mailed around and found some where else.....Camera World Phoned Tuesday and had the lens by Thursday
