With a maximum aperture of f/4, this lens is able to remain compact while ensuring excellent sharpness and depth-of-field control.

How do I put on a 52mm filter? I can't figure out how to remove the glass on the adapter.
To use a 52mm filter with the SLR Magic 8mm f/4 Lens, screw the filter adapter into the front of the lens--the front of the filter adapter has a 52mm filter thread.

does this lens produce a "hotspot" when using it to create infrared photographs (either with an IR pass filter or IR-converted camera) ? if it does, how noticeable is it and is it only at certain apertures? please send links to sample IR photos if you have any.
This lens was not designed with IR shooting in mind.

Does this -SLR Magic 8mm f/4 Lens- works on Fuji XT1 camera?
The SLR Magic 8mm f/4 Lens has a Micro 4/3 mount, so it cannot fit the Fuji X-T1 directly nor can it be adapted to fit.

question
As it meant for drone & stabilizers, since it is m43, will it work with Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera?
I just got mine for the bmpcc. It works flawlessly and it's super wide.

How does this compare to the
rokinon 7.5mm. I shoot a lot of interiors and correcting the fisheye can get annoying. Is the sharpness on pair with the 7.5mm fisheye lenses? I alway shoot on a tripod and usually am at F5.6 or F8
The main differences between these lenses are feature-based. The SLR Magic 8mm f/4 is slightly less bright in low light and a bit longer in length versus the Rokinon 7.5mm f/3.5 Fisheye. Also, the SLR Magic offers a larger knurled focus ring for easier use with a follow focus system.

Is this compatible with a LUMIX GX85?
Is this compatible with a LUMIX GX85?
Yes it is. As owner of a GX80 (same camera with another name) I have shot several pictures with this lens.
You have to set the camera menu at "Custom" and then "Shoot without lens.
Kind regards
