Fisheye lens for pentax kr?
I'd really like to get a fisheye lens for my pentax kr, and I'm looking for the cheapest one possible, but I don't know the best options as a lot of them are for canon or nikon. I also don't really want to get a filter as I've heard the disrupt the colour quite a bit. Any suggestions?
The first choice would be the smc PENTAX DA 10-17mm F3.5-4.5 ED (IF) Fish-Eye. It is made for your camera and costs about $530 on Amazon
The next best would be a fisheye like the Rokinon FE8M-P 8mm F3.5 Fisheye for under $300
ANY add-on filter that claims to be a fisheye is bogus. A fisheye by design and definition "sees" 180 degrees. Frankly they are a waste of $40 plus shipping if your true goal is to shoot a full 180 degree photo.

Price for pentax Fisheye lens about $35 - $60
you should buy a good UV filter like B&W brand
