What is up with this lens? This seems a long time for it to be out of stock. It may be an old lens, but it is well regarded, and this is not a good time for Canon to be replacing it unless the replacement is not that much more expensive.

Very true Sharpy, a fisheye lens is the “money maker” every pro has to have it, nothing comes close.

It’s not a niche market- every surf, snow and skate photog in the world relies on their fisheye on a practically daily basis… For taking watershots of surfers in tubes its the standard lens…

hmmm… I don’t think you guys have seen the better fisheye pictures that are out there, I agree that it is a niche market, but it is a useful lens. I hope they keep or upgrade it, especially considering how little R&D it takes to improve a fisheye lens.

its a niche product and a weird one at that… there are plenty of alternatives and if canon discountinues this one to make room for something more useful then I’m certainly going to be happy

fisheyes are not gay… rear converters are.

C’mon these fisheye lenses are only good for cropped sensors. If you have seen one picture made with fisheye lenses you have seen them all.

Canon please discontinue this lens and use the R&D on something worthwhile.

So I guess we will have that old Gay lens to kick around a bit longer…

I keep mine preciously !

Canon has a lot of new lenses to introduce in short period of time if they want to renew their lineup…
