We went last weekend to the openning of the high Line Promenade here in NYC http://www.thehighline.org/ and I saw this old man with his A100 walking front of me while I was shooting with the 7D and a fisheye

It's a good shot, and I like the fisheye effect. Did you talk to him at all?

No: I'm not that chatty :oops: and I was with my GF and other friends trying to getting out of the crowd -You don't see it on this picture, but there were a lot of people hanging around.

The fisheye is an Accura 12mm f8 (a friendly member of the Minolta and MinoltaManualFree groups @ Yahoo, Ray Lemieux wrote and article about this lens REF: http://thesybersite.com/general/12mm-fisheye/) that I got on ebay for 60 US$ because it was listed as "Minolta MD/MC) while the lens is actually a T-Mount -it works with all kind of cameras with a 10 US$ adapter (adapter that I already had in Alpha mount) As any other fisheye, it is nice for a lot of things, but doesn't works for everything...
