Soligor Fish-Eye 0.15X Conversion Lens

Soligor Fish-Eye 0.15X Lens

The Soligor Fish-Eye 0.15X is a self-contained auxiliary fisheye lens that delivers a dramatic 180° circular fisheye view. It's a genuine multi-element optic with its own aperture ring, made to mount on the front of a standard lens, where it multiplies the field of view — a 50mm becomes roughly a 7.5mm fisheye. A cult favourite among creative and experimental shooters, it's a far cheaper route to the circular-fisheye look than a dedicated fisheye prime, and it works across a wide range of cameras and focal lengths, film or digital. This example is in excellent++ condition with little to no signs of use.
