Actually, from the photo it is clear that the dimensions of the front element (about 21 cm) simply will not allow to realize the idea of the developers. However, the “fisheye” type lens, called C-4 Optics, already shocked the public, and no one excludes the possibility that Roger Cycal, together with Brian Caldwell and Aaron Clos, will bring the idea to its logical conclusion. Until then, the “flying saucer” will be full of titles in the titles of relevant topics with photos in large size.
What can Lensrentals C-4 Optics do?
Of course, the main feature of the lens is the angle of latitude, which is 270 degrees. This means that the C-4 Optics lens can peer behind itself. Thus, if the user decides to put a miracle of engineering on a table in the center of the room, directing his “eye” to the ceiling, then each of the walls of the room, as well as a very large area of the floor, will also get into the frame. A few days after the announcement of the development, many "home engineers" began to compare the principle of work with panoramic shooting. Of course, this is an underrated opinion! Theoretically, with this lens in the future, professionals will be able to create a new genre of visual art.
According to preliminary data, in the near future the model will become available for purchase. Most likely, the cost of the lens will be at least $ 5,000. At the same time, the developers have already shared information that they are ready to create several dozen copies to order. Optical artifact at the moment has no analogues!
