Fisheye & Super Wide Zoom

The fisheye lens is a great lens for sporting activities and going to the skatepark, you can really get creative with this lens and have some fun whilst taking one of a kind shots.

"A fisheye lens is a special type of ultra-wide angle lens. They are small, ultra-wide, and show a distorted, spherical view of the world, most evident in the curved, outer corners of the photo and they focus very closely. A super wide angle lens exaggerates the relative sizes of near and far subjects, so it is important to get very close to your subject. These lenses have a specific purpose and very specialised."

Wide to Standard Lenses

Standard lenses are great because they photography pretty much what human eyes see which makes it look very natural to the viewer, especially the 50mm fixed lens which is roughly the same angle as the human eye. They are also a very versatile lens and produce an excellent image quality and they're generally ideal for every purpose of photography.

A wide angle lens can sometimes be a requirement in enclosed spaces, simply because you cannot move far enough away from their subject to get all of the space in the image.

Wide angle lenses are very handy if you specialize in interior photography.
