Rob, I recently had an interesting experience where I took my time and
spent the effort to understand the reasoning behind certain person's
sayings on the certain forum. I must say that in this very specific
case, although considered pretty much a clown, this guy was talking
quite sensible things, even if his wording was not very good. But having
understood him, I agreed with him, because his logic was actually in
line with my notions...
Specifically in this case - I've had FA 17-28 fish eye zoom by Pentax
and indeed after a short while I lost my interest in it. That is not to
say that everyone should "suffer the same fate" as I did, but do agree
with me that I could have my reasons to agree with general notion of
K.R.'s words here...

From his review of the Samyang 8mm f/3.5 Fisheye, which is otherwise
relatively informative (yes I know, smack), then this:
"There really isn't anything useful you can do with a fisheye, other
than use the images as a basis for tweaking back to straight with
software."
"If you're going to buy a fisheye, it doesn't make much sense to spend
much money on it, since you'll probably get tired of it in a few
days."
