Camera Lenses

easy
General Knowledge

What is the typical degree of view provided by a fisheye lens?

A
90 Degree
B
180 Degree
C
360 Degree
D
None Of Above
Explanation and memory cue

A fisheye lens is an ultra wide-angle lens that typically provides a field of view of about 180 degrees or more, but generally not 360 degrees. Most fisheye lenses cover up to 180 degrees diagonally, with some specialized lenses exceeding this slightly (up to around 220-280 degrees on smaller sensors). However, 360-degree coverage is not typical for a fisheye lens itself; 360-degree views require multiple lenses or specialized panoramic setups. Therefore, the correct answer is 180 degrees.
