I just recently bought myself the Inon UFL-M150 ZM80 Underwater Micro Fisheye Lens, which is a lens with a fisheye field of view, but with a 0 mm minimum focus distance. The lens hence allows to film or photograph macro/close up shots, but with a wide angle view of the background. Intriguing. There is distortion at the perimeter when I use it with my Olympus E-M1, and the 17-42 mm kit lens, but the way these videos look is nevertheless quite original imo.

Here I caught a forgfish, yawning:


Mantis shrimp are great subjects for underwater videography. This one was quite active when I placed my camera in front of its burrow.


This seahorse was also a good video subject. This lens has such difficult focusing characteristics, that the subjects have to be very close to the lens. The autofocus also tends to travel a bit, so subjects which stay in place are an advantage.
