My combination for this week will be the D7200 and Samyang 8/3.5 Fisheye.
If anyone else wants to shoot a single lens with me for a week, feel free to post what you get in this thread.
Don't forget that the subject says one lens, so you can use your favourite zoom if you want to, it doesn't have to be a prime. The idea behind this exercise is to get in the habit of using our cameras. Remember that the best camera is the one you have with you and are familiar with.
Prepare for some wacky photos this week.
Let's GO!

You're having way too much fun with this lens, Peter! I'm so curious--how is it that the second to last image with the bus seems to have almost no distortion? Can't wait to see the rest of what you do for the rest of the week--should be interesting no matter what!
Here's some more...

I have to get a fisheye lens, so much fun.
This week I used my D750 with a Tokina 17-55 f4 lens
Dean, those look nice. My Samyang has a bigger brother that behaves the same on FX as the 8 mm does on DX. They sell under many names, as do all the Samyang lenses. They don't break the bank either, as the 12/2.8 FX fisheye can be found for under $400 without looking much. The 8 mm can be used on FX as well, if you remove the lens hood. It will, however, not be a full circle as the image circle is ~30 mm, so it looks a bit strange, even for a fisheye.
This photo is cropped to the image circle horizontally, but with no vertical crop.
Nicole, if you look closely, you will see that I have no strong verticals close to the edges in the bus photo. The distortion is there, but not as visible as usual because of the geometry of the composition.

! I'm really enjoying what you are capturing with the fisheye...
