    Overview

    The Lensbaby Scout 12mm Fisheye is a solidly built metal lens with smooth manual focus. It offers a 160-degree circular fisheye view on full frame, cropped on APS-C (Bob Atkins). Optical quality is decent but not as sharp as pricier fisheyes like the Peleng 8mm (Bob Atkins). A unique creative flare effect fills the border with color from bright lights. The aperture disk system is cumbersome for street shooting. It suits adventurous photographers wanting an affordable, fun fisheye for creative effects and close focus.
