WTF is with the fisheye? Would have been nice to see the bikes as they are supposed to look.

 

It's the name given to a very wide angle SLR Lens. Typically 15mm or wider. They are really meant for landscape and astro photography, but trends lately have been to use them in a more creative mode.

 

Ideally, if the person who took these shots "had to" use a fisheye, they should have used some Post Processing to remove the distortion. Otherwise, indoors like this, I would have used a standard lens. To some extent depending on their lens choice some distortion correction would still be necessary to convey a true view.

 

Here's an example of applying correction. Again, a simple fix.

I'm aware what fisheye is. I was just asking what's WITH the fisheye. i.e. why did the camera guy choose the fisheye lense when it would distort every image? It was basically a rhetorical question.

Did your camera get stuck on fish eye and you didn't notice?

 

Seriously ?

 

Correction doesn't work either, leave that lens at home.

A friend I work with snapped a few shot from the bike show this weekend. So I figured I'd share them here. Did anyone get a chance to go check it out?

Like I said, they were pics a friend of mine took. I didn't mean to make CR nauseous looking at them. Just thought I'd share. :(
