Got the lens today and had a great time testing it in Manhattan.
The bad thing is the thick blue halo around the circular images @ 8mm. I had to remove it in the pp and it was not fun.
Thank you for looking.

Who is going to be the first to do a fishy zoom shot?
Dave Hartman who would if he could!
-
Congratulations ;) Very nice.
Yes a fishy zoom and pan ;)
Blue rim is by design, sadly,,,
Get closer is the recommended Bjørn trick for using Fisheyes and UWA with an impact,,, 8)

I love the blue Passepartout but tend to use the lens as a sperical correction 15mm alternating with the 20mm rectangular correction.
I got it on 8 July 17 and it is a keeper

When needed apply circular crop for blue edge removal.

That's exactly what I do but I'm not used to spend much time in pp like this.

Off course, you can also use the Blue Rim Remover, the lens comes with ;D
(But I do not like it, there are still some few blue edges 8))

I hope Adobe include this correction in their camera raw.

add a bit of black tape at the edges of the hood?

You can't use the hood @ 8mm.

Well, actually you can. It's just that the results are a bit strange. ;D

Stop complaining already. Some of us can't afford a circular fish. :) ;) :D
Now who is going to zoom while shooting and post a photograph? It's time to get down and get with it!
Dave who's latest fish story goes back to 1969 excepting a 16/2.8 AIS which isn't the kind that swims in the Pacific (he hopes).
Oops! This one needed smileys.

It won't be me, sorry!
I don't carry a tripod.
:-\

You don't need a tripod. Just do it!

Just to get an impression, quick and dirty:
-
It didn't work. I suspected that.
-
Someone create a circle template for 8-15mm photogs ;)
-

Where?
I have to use elipse selection (pressing shift to make ir round) and then inverse the selection to paint it all black.
It's easy but takes a while.
-
It didn't work. I suspected that.
Oh, I don't know. Perhaps the thing to do is to crop it to the circle even though it gets zoomed...
-
It didn't work. I suspected that.
I wouldn't say that.

The photo looks like a quick shot in a kitchen. It's a starting point and I see proof of concept. If I believed in Santa I'd be writing to the north pole and not posting here. :D

Hi,
I come to this website to have fun, not to attend to anyone's rude requests or read snappy references to what I've written.
You'd better buy the lens and make your own tests.

Atpaula, Very nice shots with your new Fisheye-Zoom!
I have an old 8mm f/2.8, those also have a small blue edge, not quite as wide, but I trim them also.
I use a slightly modified version of this video instruction:
https://youtu.be/v4Jq2nIX9eE
I think it can be made into a Photoshop action, although I have not done that yet.
I actually like your black trim around your shots.
Your lens looks sharp to me.
Thanks for posting your shots.

That's a fantastic hint!!!
My borders are too much imperfect and unequal and now I've learned how to make a proper border, like I've done to my square pics.
Just have to train now how to use the many new concepts to me.
Thank you so much for posting it.
-
See below my first perfect border.
The problem to use Photoshop is to learn what do the words mean. They say STROKE instead Of BORDER.
Anyway, I'm very grateful for the hint.
Thank you Kuri.
