9 creative photo ideas to try in May

Creative photo ideas for May: 09 Shoot with a fisheye lens

Get started today…

* Fisheye lenses work differently on APS-C and full-frame cameras, so check the coverage you’ll get for your camera before buying.
* You get a very wide field of view with fisheye lenses, so you need to ensure that your feet, your shadow or your tripod don’t end up in the bottom of the shot.
* With so much field of view, often including the sun and masses of sky, fisheye images can suffer from too much contrast. You can’t fit ND grad filters to fisheye lenses, so shoot in raw so you can adjust exposure later (or combine several different exposures).
