I am using the Olympus 8mm/f2.8 for some time now to shoot virtual reality 
scenes
and spherical panoramas. Since I seem to be the only user of this lens
in VR-land (only Sigma and Nikon users out there) I had to figure
out all the projection data and distortion parameters by myself. If
anyone is interested, I am glad to share this info.

I am now considering a full-frame fisheye, and have the choice 
between the OM 16mm and the Sigma 15mm. Any comments and
experiences?

Best regards

Helmut Dersch

PS: We had some discussions on this list regarding a loose lensmount
in my 8mm (which I bought from Frank). This turned out to be due
to some loosened screws inside the lens, which could be fixed without major
problems.
