Did you order it from the 7artisans website in China or did you find a local distributor? I suppose import tax is a risk to consider

I would like to see some straight-up shots to see how much ground it captures to make 360° panoramas like this https://www.acapixus.dk/photography/LaowaVenus4mm_EFM/samples.htm
I gave up on in Laowa, as it was not really wide enough

And possibly we could collaborate on making a RectFish profile for the lens while I am figuring out whether to get my own.

I have received the 7Artisans 4mm fisheye and I will be making a youtube review.

If you have any questions you would like to have answered, please go ahead and ask.

I will test it on the M6 mark II and compare it to my Opteka 6.5mm f/2 fisheye.

First impressions:

Lens is very nicely build and quite small.

7Artisans sent me the lens for review. But generally in the US, big stores like B&H have them in stock pretty shortly after launch.

What do you need to create a RectFish Profile?

I will send you a private post
