Fisheye Video

A video shot with a GH1 and the new Panasonic 8mm Fisheye lens at 43rumors.

It looks very "bendy"!!

My personal take on this here:-

It does seem to be a bit of an odd choice as a new prime lens, though I did read your blog and understand that the fisheye is has a bit of a cult or niche following. The video itself is rather entertaining and quite crisp and clear. It's definitely a kind of fun lens if one is into fisheyes and/or has unlimited funds for lenses.

Love the train, but why on earth a fisheye and not a low light lens? And wasn't the 14mm supposed to be a 1.4 or 1.8? Panasonic, please listen to us and give us a 1.4!!

Now...if the fisheye was an 8mm/F1.2, I would get it right away and de-fish everything! Panasonic, PLEASE, low light lenses.
