iPhone Fisheye lens

Sorry I haven posted anything for a while, I really need to get back to doing some more creative stuff with my Photography. Having said that, a couple of months ago I was in the National Media Museum in Bradford and as I always do I had a look around the gift shop (it’s always full of cool little gadgets, as well as brilliant books etc). That is when I stumbled across this cool little gadget

At £5 it seemed link a bargain and it was. I set about taking photos that day and experimenting with what field of view it gave me and how close up I could photograph objects.

I was amazed, okay it has some serious focus fall off towards the corners and edges, but when photographing close up I couldn’t believe how short a distance I was from the object (a lot closer than an iPhone will normally focus at) and how it mimicked the function of a macro lens picking out sharp detail.

Below are a variety of shots I have taken with the SNAP FISHEYE LENS
