Fisheye for Canon Rebel XTi.?
Hi.
I have a Canon Rebel XTi. I'm fairly new to photography.
I cant afford a high-end fisheye lens at this moment. I found one on amazon for cheap. Im not sure if its compatible with my camera.
Can you help me out?
The lens is a Opteka .35x HD² Super Wide Angle Panoramic Macro Fisheye Lens

And can you maybe tell me of any other cheap fisheyes my camera is compatible with?
Thanks. Do you know if that lens in the link i had is compatible?

Comments on Fisheye for Canon Rebel XTi.?
Cheap is right … that is an excellent price for an add-on fisheye.
Canon does not make a fisheye for any of their APS-C sensored cameras. If you want an actual lens, you will have to look at the Tokina 10-17 mm fisheye zoom lens.

The lens in the link is compatible with your camera. It's a just for giggles add on. You won't get amazing quality shots with it but I've heard it's fun. (I have not tried it myself, though I've been thinking of picking one up).
The cheapest Canon fisheye I can think of is http://www.adorama.com/CA1528AFU.html?searchinfo=fisheye%20canon&item_no=6#ProductDescription
