10 Steps to Better Photography with the Fisheye Cameras

The Fisheye cameras One and No. 2 are definitely more than your average point-and-shoot cameras. How so? Well, we’ll let these tips and tricks do all the talking.

Take landscape shots with the Fisheye cameras to give views a whole new perspective.

But do take note that the Fisheye’s barrel distortion makes things look so much better (and even funnier) up close.

Find other framing devices to give your Fisheye shots more character.

Slip the Fisheye inside the Fisheye Submarine and go on a nautical analog adventure!

Take things up a notch and snap doubles and MXs. Fisheye No. 2 users would only have to flick the MX switch; meanwhile, those using the Fisheye One would have to wind their film backward and forward a few times or modify the camera altogether.

Turn off the flash, switch to B mode, and try your hand at light painting and long exposure!

Douse your photos in bright colors with the Ringflash. If this is not your thing, though, you can also check out other flashes see which one would suit your whims.

Stretch the limits of your Fisheye snaps (literally!) by overlapping images one after the other. Here’s a tipster by @vicuna!

Feeling craftsy? Create your own Splitzer for the Fisheye to slice and dice photos with.

For a change, you can also opt to take full pictures with the Fisheye cameras.
