Hey I recently got my first dslr and Im eager to expand my creativity and invest in some new lenses. Im using a canon T5. I've already made up my mind on the 50mm 1.8 , it seems like a no-brainer, but I also want to invest in a fisheye lens but I have less than $200
I see quite a few options on amazon that are from generic brands I think. I really just want to make the decision on one of these lenses that I wont regret. Right now Im caught between the
Opteka 6.5mm f/3.5 HD Aspherical Fisheye Lens and the
Altura Photo 8mm f/3.5 Aspherical HD Fisheye

I really want a lens that is remarkably sharper than standard lenses and good in low light ,also build quality that will make it last long enough. But sharpness is the most important to me. Help me make the better decision please or recommend a better fisheye lens for my budget constraints, thank you.

I haven't seen that Altura, but there is a similar 8mm Rokinon that has had good reviews. I would also look for these used. Many people pick them up and then after a while the wow-factor wears off and they sell.
