    After Samyang, Sigma and Tamron also Yasuhara announced a new lens for the NEX system. It is the Madoka 180, a fisheye lens with 180 degrees. Yasuhara is a small japanese company that has a long history of making Leica clones (click here to see the Yasuhara Type 1 M-mount camera). What follows is the official press release text (via Yasuhara.eu)

    “Yasuhara announced a new fisheye lens for Mirrorless cameras Sony, Olympus and Panasonic with Sony NEX (E-mount) and micro 4/3 mount. It will be called “Madoka 180” (180 degrees). Links below direct to two image samples you can find on Yasuhara.eu page in full size version.
    Madoka 180 image sample No. 1

    Here are the basic specs of the Sony E-mount version:

    • The lens will have f/4 aperture
    • Compact  size
    • Length: about 40mm
    • Diameter: about 60mm

    The first Yasuhara Madoka will be released for Sony E mount this spring. Madoka will be available for sale on Yasuhara.eu page at the end of March – begining of April 2012. The company is planning to release also a special software for the images taken with Madoka lenses.“

    I wonder how it compares to the Samyang.

    can someone explain to a photography newbie what a 180 degrees lens is?

    #
  • Avatar Image anonymous said 2 months, 3 weeks ago:

    To bad it’s not a diagonal fisheye, like the Samyang 8mm f/3.5

    I find diagonals much more useful.

    @Waldomarek: take a look at the example photos.

    It’s a lens that gives you a 180 degree view in each direction.

    Finally a 180 degree fisheye for E-Mount! Too bad it has such bad CA problems … Yeah, fisheyes generally have CA, but this seems a bit too much. (LOL, I almost wrote too bad it has barrel distortion problems ^^)

    I still think the Samyang 8mm will be better I have the A mount version and its great

    Yeah, the Samyang is pretty much the best fisheye you can get for 300 bucks. And the new 7,5mm is even small enough — and faster, which can be handy sometimes even at a fisheye.

    Samyang 8/3.5 already had 180 degrees. This lens is a lot smaller, but the new Samyang 8/2.8 will likely be much more desirable.

    EDIT: Ah, apparently its rendering is different from the Samyang lenses. Less useful for me, but perhaps someone really needs a circular fisheye.

    how much does it cost?

    #
  • Avatar Image anonymous said 2 months, 3 weeks ago:

    Multiply the weight by the length, the divide by the diameter and multiply again by the max focal length – 533US.

    Quickly fixed in Photoshop, though.

    +6 on “Red-Cyan fringe” is about right.
