Distinguished by its ultra slim form factor, the Fisheye Body Cap 9mm f/8 Lens from Olympus is a unique 18mm equivalent lens for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras. As its name suggests, the 0.5"-thin lens resembles a camera's body cap for a sleek overall profile. Despite its small size, the lens features a pair of aspherical elements to help achieve notable sharpness and well-controlled distortion, and a manual focus lever permits switching between Deep Focus and Close-Up shooting positions.
- Micro Four Thirds System
- 18mm (35mm Equivalent)
- Fixed f/8 Aperture

Olympus 9mm f/8 Fisheye Body Cap Reviews
Simplistic and Artistic
Wow. Some of my favorite camera gear now.
Great lens at a great price
This lens will satisfy your needs for a fisheye function
Quality budget fisheye
Light, incredibly inexpensive, Olympus quality , which can be carried in your pockets and give you wide angle capability without the extra bulk or weight when you want to go out light.
If you're looking for small and lightweight ...
... this lens delivers. And you can't beat the price. But it's the 35mm equivalent of an 18mm lens - not a true fisheye - and you're stuck with a single aperture - F8. Moreover, focusing is limited and the optical performance lags behind my Rokinon 8mm. So it ain't for everybody. Just the same, I'm having a great time with this lens.
Good Value for Low Cost Fisheye
Just used my newly purchased Olympus fisheye on a photo outing to Brooklyn NY. Performed well in good lighting with some vignetting which can be corrected in post processing. Great little lens to take along for some fun fisheye photos.
As light and compact as they come.
Perfect fish-eye wide angle for traveling light without sacrificing wide angle capability.
Wow!
Really amazing quality. I thought it was bad until I read the instructions and realized it has a focusing switch you must set. Now it's amazing for the size and cost.
Amazing
A true wide angle lens of good optical quality, weighing close to nothing, that can be carried in a shirt pocket ,for around 100 bucks!!....what more can you ask for?
