I have had my fisheye for 2-3 years. Barely shot with that either

I use my 16-85mm lens the most.

New Plan:
Alchemy is going to "share" his fisheye with those of us that are less fortunate

Good evening Mr.onzedge

The fisheye lens is very I've wanted one for a while now, but the cost vs. potential use has always stopped me from pulling the trigger. I'm going to talk myself into buying one someday.

Mr.alcheng, I hope your day off was a good one

Hopefully everyone else had a great day too. The weekend is near!
Howdy. The fisheye is cool. I was just trying it out and have not pulled the trigger yet.

Thanks for noticing. I crack myself up sometimes and am always happy when people get it also.

the end to the rubber stem fixation.... terrible pict but that's a RAYS aluminum cap on there.

i had to remove the inner seal on the valve cap so that the cap tightens down all the way on the stem.
otherwise the thread of the stem is exposed. it doesn't really need the seal anyway, imho especially
on my hobby car.

Was away here and there most of the time yesterday Wednesday, didn't have time to check-in here so I am doing my night-owl post right now..

Howdy Everyone If there's anyone... ZzzzZzzzz....

News on the exhaust, exchanged couple PM with FBNISSAN (Fred Beans Parts), he looked into the ARK Grip and sure the exhaust can be fitted onto the roadster...

I also found info from another Z forum that the ARK Grip can be mounted onto the roadster without problem...

Mr.kenchan, on the 35mm purchase, f/1.8 or f/1.4??

Mr.kenchan, for the DSLR, I would suggest you use something at least 17mm or wider, 20mm doesn't give you too much a wide angle view.
