About Peleng 8mm f/3.5 Fisheye There are two possible kinds of fisheye lenses, you can see them further. Peleng fisheye represents the second kind. Soviet photographers used the film in another way that's why the circle of picture cannot be placed inside the 35 mm entirely even in cameras with regular film. Digital cameras still have the lens limitation of 180 degrees which can be noticed in the corners and their advanced photo system sensors can capture even less images. 1. Full frame fisheyes take half-spherical picture bias the 35mm film. 14-16 mm focal length is peculiar to them. 2. Lenses with 6-8 mm focal length capture spherical images, seizing full 180 degrees. The whole picture is placed inside the narrow film stripe. Here are Sumire and Rui who were caught by my Peleng 8mm f/3.5 Fisheye. |

Back-focus means that when focusing on some focusing point the lens misses backward so that the depth of field shifts back, too. Front-focus means that the lens misses forward and the depth of field shifts forward.
To test if the lens has the back-focus we use a special target scale which is easy to be hand-made: you should print it with a laser printer, stick it to the piece of thick carton and make some slits to make it more stable. You can download this scale from here (dimension 300 dpi, size 24x15cm).
