There is no barrel distortion on this lens... I had the lens cap adapter on still. If the adapter is removed then there is no distortion. I am posting a better example up in a few days... That have better images... Check back in a few days..
what are your thoughts on a Canon HF R10? I am begging low budget, just for fun film making with quality. I have been searching for camcorders between 400-600 for the last 2 weeks and have come across a number on camcorders. I would like to shoot in 1080p, with mic inputs, lens threads, long battery life and storage. If you have any other suggestions for anything under 600 it would be much appreciated man! thanks.
Are you trying to get a cinematic look or are you trying to get a documentary look?
If You are just doing shorts and docs.. The HF R10 is fine..
If you are trying to get more cinematic.. I would say buy a canon T2i and a few used lenses.. This would cost about 1,000
But if you only had 400-600.. The HF R10 should be good enough for most of your needs.. But buy the fastest memory card you can afford.. SO you can use the 1080P features... Cheap cards won't cut it..

Yes it fits the T2i. It should fit on all new canon's. Don't forget to take off the lens hood like I did though..
