Wondering how many of you that are interested in this Cine wide angle lens. For $179.00 US, It sure is a bit pricey, but then again so is the whole kit.
It would also be interesting if there were a way to incorporate filters with it. Your thoughts?
what do you mean you placed the order? You ordered the wide angle lens? It is still not up for sale anywhere right?First of all, this lens is not specifically designed for the Cine version. Photographers are potentially more interested in this add-on than videographers.
I placed the order immediately when I saw its existence online, knowing it is one feature that separates Mavic 3 from all other models in DJI's product line. There is no equivalent of such a super wide angle lens, even in DJI's expensive, professional-grade lens for Zenmure X5S/X7 cameras.
Exactly my thought as well. Hopefully there will be some 3rd party lensesI'll want to see sample images from it before I buy, but as a photographer, I can see uses for it. Since it will use the same mounting technique as the ND filters, I am wondering if 3rd party versions of these will start appearing too.
amateur photographer here. Not very exited for this one.
I think I would do 4-shots panoramas instead and merge in post to get higher resolution image
For stills photography, that becomes an issue when you have anything moving in your frame, such as people, cars, wildlife, a waterfall, etc. If everything is stationary, then you can certainly do what you said. For video, there is no such workaround.

I will definitely buy this when it is available, unless PolarPro or some other quality vendor offers one at a lower price. I use a Nikon 14-24 on my DSLR and it is just great for landscapes. I know this is a prime lens, not a zoom. I think I paid around $1700 for the DSLR lens. I know comparing a Nikon professional lens to a drone lens is not a fair comparison, but wow, 15mm on top of the M4/3 camera will be very useful to me. I haven't seen any availability dates yet. January seems to be a popular date.
Depends on speed of movement and distance if you will run into problems with stitching, but theoretically correct.For stills photography, that becomes an issue when you have anything moving in your frame, such as people, cars, wildlife, a waterfall, etc. If everything is stationary, then you can certainly do what you said.

I guess the hobbyist very well understands the concept of a higher field of view.My thoughts exactly.
The hobbyists don't seem to understand the possibility this new lens enables, for more dramatic landscape/architecture aerial images. The optical quality is not going to be at the same level as professional grade prime lens (e.g., Nikon 14mm F2.8 ED), but such a compact lens at a fraction of the price, there's not much I can complain.
Yes, agreed. Movement in the distance is not the same as movement up close. Airplanes going 900km/h that appear to be crawling across the sky is probably an example everyone can relate to.Depends on speed of movement and distance if you will run into problems with stitching, but theoretically correct.
But as there is no panorama function by now, it's not possible anyway.
BTT: does this fully replace the lens or is just an ancillary lens? Ever avoided this in the DSLR as for macro. Yeah, you change your focal length but often the quality too.
