The seller describes it as a full frane fisheye, which is precisely what I
would expect of a 14mm lens.  You may characterize that as an ultrawide -
but I am not sure what you think is the distinction between the two!  I
could suggest that it's an ultra-ultrawide with obvious barrel distortion.
What's significant is the4 "full frame" descriptor - you will not get a
circular image out of this lens, as you would from a Zuiko 8mm, nor would
you get a rectilinear image (straight lines in the subject rendered straight
in the image) as you would from a Zuiko 18mm.

Ebay item 7538256849

Is this really a Sigma Fisheye or just an ultrawide? Have not heard of this
particular Fisheye!

Thanks.
