Hi, Skip and all.

>Has anyone seen a Sigma 8mm, full-frame fisheye in OM-Mount?

Yes, I've got one. It's an OK performer, and *much* cheaper than the
equivalent Zuiko.

>Where can you find one?

Mine came from a second-hand dealer, I got it before I knew the bay ;-)

>Has anyone tried it on the E-1?

No E-1 to test, but I've used it on my EOS-300D:

<http://cjss.sytes.net/etc/sigma.jpeg> (1/500, wide open, ASA 100, no
sharpening, some levels/gamma correction as usual)

Here's an actual-pixels crop: <http://cjss.sytes.net/etc/sigma_crop.jpeg>.
Looks soft but it improves clearly at f/5.6-8

Enjoy,
