  "account": "The Canon RF 7-14mm F2.8-3.5L Fisheye STM lens review discusses the suitability of the lens for niche uses. This lens offers full circular or 180-degree fisheye images at various focal lengths, including a 7mm circular image with a 190° angle of view and a 14mm full-frame fisheye view of 180°. Although designed for full-frame cameras, it can also be used on Canon APS-C models like the Canon EOS R7. The lens is praised for its full circular fisheye, wide aperture, drop-in filter system, and close focusing distance of 0.15m. Despite its high price, the lens has several applications, including action sports photography, astrophotography, landscape photography, portrait photography, and \"wtf\" photography, which involves creating \"marble\" images of landscapes for fun.",
