Back to myNotice that the Deitz with 50mm lens is wider than the 17mm lens due to the fish-eye effect. There is very slight corner vignetting visible in the 4x6 machine print.
Above taken with Vivitar 17-28 at 17mm setting.
Above taken with Deitz mounted on 50mm lens.
Above taken with Deitz mounted on 40mm lens.
Above taken with Deitz mounted on 28-80 lens at 28mm setting.
The Deitz with 40mm gives the most pleasing effect in my opinion. This shot is much wider than the 50 and I like the look of the clipped circular fisheye. The additional scene (vs the 50mm photo) is not very sharp since the lens isn't designed for this but I do like the effect. The middle 2/3 of the photo appears quite sharp (for an add-on lens).
The 28mm shot does give the circular fisheye effect though no more scene is included than with the 40mm. The cropping may be from the 58->49mm stepdown ring, or just the 28mm lens "seeing" the edge of the Deitz adapter. A fixed 28 or 35mm lens with 49mm filter thread may work better.
