The Sigma 15mm f2.8 EX DG Diagonal Fisheye Lens for Canon Digital SLR Cameras is a digitally optimized diagonal fisheye auto-focus lens. It is equipped with the latest in multi-layer coating technology that reduces both flare and ghosting. By taking advantage of both the distortion specific to fisheye lenses and the minimum shooting distance of 5.9 inches, the photographer can shoot error-free creative images. By offering a 180 degree field of view, this fisheye lens can be used to create amazing image expressions that cannot be seen with the human eye, such as exaggerated perspective and distortion.The minimum shooting distance and large depth of field allow close up photography that covers the objects surrounding the photographic subject. The lens is supplied with a gelatin filter holder at the rear, allowing the use of gelatin filters.

Customer Review: Lens is OKAY
I rented this lens for a wedding and enjoyed it... but not enough to purchase it. The images it produces are nice but it was incredibly loud and had a hard time focusing (which extended the noise until it focused). For the same price, I think I'd stick with the Canon 15mm.
Customer Review: read reviews and know your camera
I have two full frame cameras that this lens does exactly what it is suppose to do at with excellent sharpness and color contrast. Don't use it much, but when it is needed there are no other lens that will match it for it's speed f2.8 and price. On an AP-C camera, e.g. 1.6 sensor, it is the equivalent of a 24 mm on my full frame. One should read before one buys.
