Compliment, n, An expression of regard or praise. Example: I must compliment you on your choice of camera.
Complement, n, That which completes or fills up. Example: I purchased my 50-200mm lens to complement the use of my normal 18-55mm. (The longer lens completes a range, fills a gap.)
What you said about Complement is what I also thought, it comes from the word complete right?
So with the 50-200mm added to the 18-55mm you complete the focal range from 18 to 200mm. I just don't believe that the word can be used in relation that a fisheye complement a rectilinear lens in terms off angle of view because of the difference in the images is to great.

What is the feeling about the lens? Good/bad/indifferent?
Also this lens has quick-shift so if the AF doesn't want to lock you can simply override the AF by turning the focus ring so you can manual focus in an instance.

I agree about the lens fitting but I find that using both cameras does not cause conflict.

And, very luckily, have a Showarma Shop not so far away.
Measuring distance you're probably better off using miles, kilometres, yards, meters, inches or centimetres, rather than minutes.
Also I can easily go under the railway with the bike through the bike tunnel but need to drive around to the overway if I want to get to the other side with the car.

The figures 180º-100º from the Pentax 10-17 and the 102.4º-63.8º from the Sigma 10-20 does follow each other up but the way this is archived and is shown is very different so the two lenses does not make a whole or create perfection, it does complete the range from 180º to 63.8º angle of view.

The people that use those sort of cameras want decent fps ... The 645D just doesn't cut it there. They also want fast long lenses for sport and stellar AF. There is no way they are ever going to swap over.

It's a bit like all those electronic aids in today's cars helping you to drive them but the more the aids will help you the more detached you will be/feel from actually driving.
It's great we have things like AF these days but does it make the act of making a photo more pleasurable?
