maybe you can. look at the Zenitar 16mm fisheye..it is around 140$ and very solidly build. it is manual focus but not a problem with 16mm..you put it to F9 or F11 and a reasonable focusing distance. YOu switch to Av mode nd set the camera to the corresponding F number and voila...it will meter perfectly.

Please do not start new thread for private message to me but send them to me via email instead! thanks.

forgot to comment on the photo! really cool photo!

Agree! Nice photo! I also agree with the Zenitar recommendation. The manual focus will allow you to not worry about it autofocussing on the dirty plane window but the extra width will probably include some of the plane in your composition. Fisheyes are not for everyone but they are fun for those of us who like the effect. The Zenitar is a good lens to use to find out if you are one who does like it and this shot is definitely a place to try it out.

I can't take my eyes off it. I like the rotated perspective.
