I will re-read that article in the latest German ColorFoto, covering
all current fisheyes, but I believe they wrote that it doesn't do all
that well on DSLR's (because of the typical wide-angle problem of
light hitting the sensor at a too large angle)
In that context you might want to compare results with the Sigma
15mm/f2.8, which has been updated for digital applications (same with
the 8mm/f3.5 (older versions were 8mm/f4.0)).
(I do have such an older 8mm, but no recent DSLR to test it with,
only a DCS3....;))
(waiting for the release of the 1Ds Mark-III, so that prices of the
Mark-I tumble to more analog levels....;))
But perhaps Canon will surprise us this year with their own updated
fisheye, and launch an 8 or 6mm at the same time....;))
