In addition to its ultra-wide prime, Canon announced a rather exotic lens this week: the RF 7-14mm F2.8-3.5 L Fisheye STM, which, at its widest setting, has a 190° field of view, meaning it can actually see behind itself. We got to spend a bit of time with it prior to its launch to get an idea of what shooting with this kind of focal length is like. (The experience gave us a renewed awareness of where our fingers and the feet of our tripods are.)

We hope to spend a bit more time with this lens to capture a few more kinds of subjects with it, such as architecture in good weather and, if we can find one, a skateboarder. We’ll be sure to keep you updated when we add those images, but for now, enjoy the gallery.
