Wide Angle Lens HELP!
I've Been Looking for a wide angle lens for a 37mm digital handicam,
I'm kind of new to film and photography. Most of the .45x lenses I've looked at are fisheye lenses, are all .45x lenses fisheye ? or are they diffrent from just normal .45x wide angle lenses. Also Is the lower the number (.45x) the wider the picture or do I want one with the highest number (.6x)?Also at what point has the least amount of noticable distortion. |

Wide Angle Lens HELP!
What are the odds you would find a film photographer in a group with
"darkroom" in the name? Who knew? By the way, I just was out playing with a Horizon 202 - a 120 degree wide angle view of the world. Almost must be tripod mounted, has a bubble level, no light meter or automation. Uses more than a full frame of 35mm - about 23 exposures to a 36 exposure roll. Results are surprisingly good. To bad it isn't digital. "Jorge Omar" wrote in message ... "Mike King" wrote in : And rec.photo.digital couldn't help?
