Super As sell for an average of £32 on ebay, up to £68.00 for a pristine one.Q1 Is there any demand however small for these cameras (working good as gold with just a few marks on the body)
and
Q2 Is the converter any good or just an amusing gadget
The fisheye is an amusing gadget but given that distortion is the name of the game it is probably worth having some fun with.
Cheers, Kris.

The eye and head are sharp. The fact that the tail is out of focus due to the depth of field is neither here nor there. A really nice shot indeed, easily better than any bird shot I have attempted.

Nice shot although perhaps could do with a bit more perspective correction? Tower Bridge is falling over, falling over, falling over, Tower... [shut up Lockyear!]
Spider... why not let us all know what you would do? Everyone's photoshop technique is different, and it is good to see what others would do.
Best wishes, Kris.

I love the third photo. It is a classic example of making sure there is something of interest in the foreground, the mid-ground and the background. Of course, without the faked sky the background would have been less interesting but in this case I'll forgive you as it makes a good shot!
Nice shots all round.
PS, you're right, the halos are burnt out. And getting windows square is a right pain. One occasion where photoshop is a blessing.

I've got a silver one, fancy a swap? Poor thing looks outta place next to the black 31mm and 77mm!Sssshhhhhh Sadly SRS didn't have a silver one.
I don't think it is overdone and I like the photo. I depressing sense of decay, but it "speaks", if you know what I mean. Maybe, it would look good framed with a large border?

Amin... a background tip: keep them well back from the thing you are photographing so that you don't pick up the texture of the paper. That 100mm macro is as sharp as a tack!
One last thing: the tulip photo is lovely.
I think you can stop apologising for being a newbie now!
Best wishes, Kris.

Only use Av and Manual, and I shoot RAW.
NB I wonder if there is any correlation with the fact I cut my photographic teeth on an ME Super?
