Thank you for your purchase of our 7.5 fisheye lens for your Fuji X Series Camera.
As you may know, Japanese lenses were discovered by American Korean War Photographers in the early 1950s. They were amazed at the quality of the images and of the workmanship and the value. At 7 Artisans, we hope you are equally amazed at the lenses our technicians create.
What good is a great lens of you cannot afford it or that it is so expensive that you will never use it for fear of loss or damage, And what good is a poorly made lens that delivers second best images and that disintegrates in your hands.
Dedicated to combining hands on craftsmanship and leading edge computer design and advanced manufacturing technology to deliver lenses you can afford and will be proud to use.
Each 7 Artisans Lens is packaged in a lovely box for two reasons, one because 7 Artisans Lenses are special and two to insure that the lens reaches you, wherever you are in the world, in perfect condition.
While every lens is hand inspected and tested and includes an inspection certificate, we realize that we are human and also that sometimes things happen. Each lens is protected by a one year warranty from the date of purchase. Should you have a problem, please contact the distributor in your country. In the unlikely event that you might have a problem with them, please let us know.

Each lens has a mounting index dot printed on the barrel.
Align the dot and twist the lens to securely mount it to your Fuji X Camera
