"that shit" is the vig, its how a fisheye looks. yours is a little xcore tho, it makes like the tineyest fisheye outline I've ever seen. when you're filming fisheye, hold the camera closer to the ground and point a bit up. also get closer to the skater, thats the point of the fisheye so when you get close it doesn't look as close so its still a good shot.

I hope you didnt pay a lot for that fisheye. That lens is so bad looking. What kind is it.

Fix the top and sides where theres just the black bars. you got some nastyass vig.. make sure you get closer to the skater. hold the camera lower to the ground and point up, just keep practicing...

Id zoom in a little bit to get rid of some of the vig too

Thanks for the tips. I have this thing called "optical image stabilization" on my camera. does that do any effect on the vignetting? and the fisheye was like 30 dollars so ya it was a pretty cheap fisheye. The fisheye is a titanium .42x AF lens. Anyone have tips or suggestions?

turn the OIS off when your filming with a fisheye, it makes the vig shake

Turn it off. Its what is making the vig shake and try to zoom through as much of it as you can. A small amount is bearable but when you have that much its just stupid.

Zooming in with a fisheye is like eating your poop. You don't do it.

OK well i have all read your thoughts and i would like to thank you all for contributing. I have now learned how to turn off the optical image stabilizer. I also zoomed in with the fisheye so you would see much of the vignetting. tahnks everyone:D

Oh, arent you encouraging?

And look at his last post. That is what I was trying to tell him to do.
